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 ankle and foot. They spend around 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programmes lie inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained considerable healthcare training with a focus on concerns regarding the feet and ankles. They are qualified to handle concerns ranging from usual conditions like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which supply them the practical experience needed to carry out surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent many issues which the feet typically encounter.
