Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in an average of ten years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received extensive health care education with an emphasis on conditions regarding the feet and ankles. They are trained to manage problems extending from regular conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical training which give them the experience necessary to perform surgery on those conditions that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against countless complications which the feet normally encounter.
