Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in around a decade in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually several podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received substantial medical training with an emphasis on complications regarding the feet and ankles. They are instructed to address issues extending from typical conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which give them the prior experience vital to conduct surgery on those issues that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and help prevent numerous issues which the feet frequently experience.
