Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They put in an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained substantial medical instruction with an emphasis on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to manage problems stretching from commonplace conditions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical training which furnish them the practical experience necessary to perform surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and minimize the risk of countless complications which the feet commonly experience.
