Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in about 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and actually a number of podiatry training programs are contained within these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired wide-ranging medical education with a focus on problems involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to manage concerns stretching from typical ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical education which supply them the experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and defend against countless complications which the feet normally encounter.
