Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received thorough health care training with a focus on complications regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to manage difficulties varying from standard afflictions for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical training which furnish them the practical experience necessary to perform surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent many issues which the feet commonly encounter.
