Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. They spend around 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in point of fact various podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained considerable medical instruction with a main focus on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to address problems ranging from standard conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more puzzling for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which provide them the experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous issues which the feet frequently encounter.
