Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote approximately ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received thorough health care training with a main focus on problems regarding the ankles and feet. They are taught to treat issues stretching from general disorders such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which give them the prior experience required to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and defend against numerous troubles which the feet normally encounter.
