Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend about a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired comprehensive medical instruction with an emphasis on issues regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to handle concerns ranging from simple conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more complicated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience required to execute surgery on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and avoid many conditions which the feet regularly encounter.
