Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in about a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact various podiatry training programs are contained within these academic institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired substantial healthcare instruction with an emphasis on difficulties regarding the feet and ankles. They are instructed to handle complications ranging from normal disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more obscure including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical training which give them the experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and prevent many issues which the feet usually encounter.
