Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in approximately a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and several podiatry programmes are located inside these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired thorough health care training with an importance on complications involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat difficulties extending from common problems like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which supply them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and minimize the risk of many troubles which the feet routinely encounter.
