Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend around a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry programs are located inside these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained extensive health care training with an attention to on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to care for complications ranging from typical ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which furnish them the experience required to execute surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and minimize the risk of countless troubles which the feet routinely encounter.
