Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of 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 corresponds to usual medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes lie within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained considerable healthcare education with an attention to on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are taught to address difficulties stretching from conventional ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical instruction which give them the prior experience required to conduct surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems allows a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and defend against numerous issues which the feet routinely encounter.
