Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in about ten years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received comprehensive health care instruction with an emphasis on complications regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to manage conditions extending from familiar problems for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more complex like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which give them the expertise necessary to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and help prevent numerous conditions which the feet routinely encounter.
