Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend about ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and a number of podiatry programs are located within these institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have gained thorough healthcare instruction with an emphasis on problems involving the feet and ankles. They are studied to treat issues stretching from general ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more sophisticated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which supply them the experience vital to conduct surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatric physician to create footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of troubles which the feet routinely encounter.
