Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors spend an average of ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and actually quite a number podiatry programs lie inside these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired extensive healthcare education with an attention to on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to deal with problems ranging from conventional disorders for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which provide them the expertise needed to conduct surgical treatment on those conditions that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough 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. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against many complications which the feet usually encounter.
