Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in around 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and various podiatry programmes lie within these academic institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received substantial medical instruction with an emphasis on conditions involving the feet and ankles. They are instructed to treat complications stretching from conventional conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical training which provide them the experience crucial to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and prevent countless complications which the feet typically encounter.
