Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programmes are contained inside these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received extensive medical training with a stress on concerns involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to care for complications ranging from common ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which give them the skill necessary to execute surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have an extensive 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. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against a large number of complications which the feet usually encounter.
