Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programmes are contained inside these academic institutions. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained wide-ranging medical training with an emphasis on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are taught to treat conditions varying from general afflictions like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical training which provide them the experience needed to perform surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems enables a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and protect against countless problems which the feet typically encounter.
