Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They invest about 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programmes are contained within these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained significant health care education with an emphasis on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. They are trained to treat conditions ranging from familiar conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience crucial to carry out surgery on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent countless complications which the feet commonly encounter.
