Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and several podiatry training programs are contained within these institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired wide-ranging health care education with a main focus on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to address issues stretching from conventional ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which give them the prior experience needed to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and prevent countless conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
