Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They devote around 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and several podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained considerable healthcare training with a stress on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. They are taught to treat concerns varying from regular disorders like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more challenging for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical training which provide them the prior experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and help prevent many complications which the feet typically encounter.
