Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in around a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and a number of podiatry programmes are contained within these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received wide-ranging medical training with a focus on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat issues stretching from normal disorders for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the skill essential to execute surgery on those problems that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet routinely experience.
