Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend an average of a decade in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programs lie inside these institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have acquired comprehensive healthcare training with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to address conditions ranging from conventional ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more complex like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which supply them the expertise necessary to execute surgery on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and avoid many complications which the feet routinely encounter.
