Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote approximately ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received significant medical education with an importance on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to address problems stretching from basic conditions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience needed to conduct surgical treatment on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and help prevent countless troubles which the feet frequently encounter.
