Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and as a matter of fact quite a number podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. After receiving 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 fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired extensive health care education with an importance on problems concerning the ankles and feet. They are studied to address problems extending from normal afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which provide them the expertise required to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of countless issues which the feet regularly encounter.
