Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They put in about ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programs are contained inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired extensive health care training with an emphasis on conditions regarding the ankles and feet. They are studied to deal with conditions ranging from common ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical education which furnish them the experience essential to execute surgery on those troubles that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid a large number of problems which the feet typically experience.
