Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote around 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and numerous podiatry programs are contained within these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have received thorough healthcare instruction with a focus on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are trained to treat issues ranging from commonplace ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more obscure including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which furnish them the experience required to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and help prevent countless conditions which the feet usually encounter.
