Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry programmes are located within these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained considerable healthcare training with an emphasis on problems involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to address concerns varying from simple afflictions for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical training which supply them the experience necessary to carry out surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of many problems which the feet normally encounter.
