Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in about a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received substantial healthcare instruction with an importance on difficulties involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are educated to deal with conditions ranging from regular disorders for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical training which furnish them the experience needed to perform surgery on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent many conditions which the feet frequently experience.
