Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend around a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained extensive medical training with an emphasis on difficulties concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are taught to treat concerns extending from familiar problems for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical training which furnish them the experience vital to conduct surgery on those problems that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations enables a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and defend against a large number of issues which the feet frequently encounter.
