Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest approximately a decade in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in fact various podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained wide-ranging medical training with a focus on concerns involving the ankles and feet. They are educated to deal with conditions ranging from familiar disorders for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical instruction which give them the experience required to perform surgery on those problems that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and minimize the risk of countless troubles which the feet generally encounter.
