Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They put in an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and a number of podiatry programs lie within these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received comprehensive medical instruction with an importance on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to treat difficulties extending from typical problems like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical education which furnish them the experience needed to execute surgery on those concerns that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise 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 activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and defend against many troubles which the feet commonly encounter.
