Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry programs lie inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received extensive medical instruction with a focus on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address issues stretching from general ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complex for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical education which give them the prior experience necessary to carry out surgery on those complications that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and defend against a large number of issues which the feet routinely encounter.
