Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest about 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired significant health care education with a main focus on issues involving the ankles and feet. They are studied to treat difficulties ranging from usual ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical instruction which supply them the experience vital to carry out surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and defend against many problems which the feet usually encounter.
