Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest approximately ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in fact various podiatry programmes are contained inside these academic institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received thorough health care training with a stress on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to manage problems ranging from simple disorders like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which supply them the experience required to perform surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough practical 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 activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent countless problems which the feet commonly encounter.
