Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have obtained extensive health care education with a stress on difficulties regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are qualified to treat conditions varying from regular problems for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical training which give them the prior experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those conditions that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent numerous problems which the feet frequently encounter.
