Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received encompassing health care instruction with a concentration on concerns regarding the feet and ankles. They are taught to handle complications ranging from simple problems for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which supply them the skill necessary to perform surgery on those issues that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and protect against many issues which the feet regularly encounter.
