Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors devote an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and actually several podiatry programmes lie within these academic institutions. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received comprehensive health care instruction with a concentration on complications regarding the feet and ankles. They are studied to manage complications extending from typical disorders for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical training which supply them the skill necessary to carry out surgery on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems permits a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent many problems which the feet typically encounter.
