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 ankle and foot. They put in an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and actually a number of podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired substantial medical education with an emphasis on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. They are instructed to treat concerns ranging from usual problems for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more challenging for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical education which provide them the expertise crucial to perform surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and prevent many problems which the feet routinely encounter.
