Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in about ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and actually several podiatry training programs lie inside these academic institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained extensive medical instruction with a concentration on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to handle concerns stretching from usual ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more perplexing like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical training which give them the practical experience essential to conduct surgery on those conditions that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and help prevent countless troubles which the feet generally encounter.
