Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors devote around ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry programs are located within these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received considerable medical education with a concentration on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are instructed to handle problems varying from commonplace disorders for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which provide them the prior experience needed to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and avoid numerous troubles which the feet generally encounter.
