Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in point of fact various podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained extensive health care instruction with an emphasis on problems involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to address conditions stretching from familiar conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical education which provide them the experience necessary to conduct surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive 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. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems permits a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against numerous complications which the feet commonly encounter.
