Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote about ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in fact many podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired considerable medical education with an attention to on concerns involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to manage complications ranging from regular ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical instruction which give them the practical experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent a large number of issues which the feet routinely experience.
