Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors invest about a decade in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and various podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired significant health care education with an importance on issues regarding the feet and ankles. They are trained to handle difficulties stretching from conventional ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which give them the experience necessary to carry out surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and prevent many conditions which the feet regularly encounter.
