Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors spend an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received considerable healthcare training with a main focus on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat problems ranging from simple ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical training which give them the skill essential to execute surgical treatment on those conditions that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent numerous troubles which the feet regularly experience.
