Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend about ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and in fact numerous podiatry training programs are contained inside these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received thorough healthcare training with a concentration on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. They are skilled to address problems stretching from normal afflictions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical instruction which provide them the experience essential to carry out surgical treatment on those issues that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous troubles which the feet commonly encounter.
