Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists spend around a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry programs are located within these schools. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received wide-ranging medical instruction with a stress on complications pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to treat problems ranging from typical problems for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical training which give them the expertise essential to perform surgery on those complications that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous issues which the feet usually experience.
