Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry training programs lie within these schools. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received extensive medical training with a concentration on concerns concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to manage issues ranging from general problems for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more sophisticated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which supply them the experience needed to perform surgery on those issues that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and prevent a large number of conditions which the feet normally experience.
