Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in fact many podiatry programmes are located inside these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired wide-ranging health care instruction with an emphasis on problems involving the ankles and feet. They are skilled to handle concerns ranging from familiar ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which furnish them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous problems which the feet regularly experience.
