Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in approximately ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired significant medical instruction with a focus on concerns regarding the ankles and feet. They are qualified to address difficulties ranging from general problems like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more perplexing like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical instruction which give them the experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent a large number of problems which the feet regularly encounter.
