Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact numerous podiatry programs lie within these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained thorough medical instruction with an attention to on problems involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to manage conditions ranging from standard conditions like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical training which supply them the practical experience essential to carry out surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and avoid a large number of troubles which the feet normally encounter.
