Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists spend approximately ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired considerable medical instruction with a focus on problems involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to manage problems ranging from standard disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which provide them the experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of countless complications which the feet routinely experience.
