Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend about a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired significant medical education with a concentration on complications concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to deal with issues ranging from typical disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more sophisticated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical instruction which supply them the practical experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent numerous conditions which the feet usually experience.
