Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend an average of a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in reality numerous podiatry training programs lie within these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive health care training with an attention to on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are trained to deal with difficulties ranging from typical conditions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical instruction which provide them the expertise needed to conduct surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and defend against many conditions which the feet usually experience.
