Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained thorough health care training with a main focus on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. They are skilled to care for problems stretching from commonplace problems like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical training which supply them the experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent many complications which the feet typically encounter.
