Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry programs lie within these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received wide-ranging medical education with a concentration on concerns involving the feet and ankles. They are skilled to address issues ranging from usual afflictions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more sophisticated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which provide them the practical experience required to perform surgery on those concerns that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent many conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
