Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programmes lie within these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received considerable health care training with a concentration on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to treat problems varying from common ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which provide them the prior experience crucial to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and defend against numerous problems which the feet routinely encounter.
