Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest around 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and actually several podiatry programs are contained inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have obtained significant medical instruction with a main focus on complications regarding the ankles and feet. They are skilled to address problems extending from regular afflictions such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical training which provide them the experience essential to execute surgery on those conditions that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and help prevent many issues which the feet typically encounter.
