Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They put in about 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programmes are contained inside these schools. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired comprehensive health care instruction with an attention to on conditions involving the ankles and feet. They are taught to care for conditions extending from regular conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more sophisticated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical instruction which supply them the experience required to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and defend against numerous complications which the feet generally encounter.
