Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in fact many podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received thorough medical training with a focus on issues involving the ankles and feet. They are trained to treat issues extending from basic ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which give them the expertise essential to perform surgery on those complications that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough 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 carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and defend against numerous issues which the feet commonly encounter.
