Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote around a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in fact numerous podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received thorough health care instruction with a concentration on problems involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to handle complications extending from usual conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical education which supply them the experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those complications that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems allows a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and avoid a large number of conditions which the feet normally experience.
