Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote an average of a decade in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and actually several podiatry programs lie inside these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained extensive medical instruction with a main focus on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to care for difficulties ranging from general problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more challenging for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical training which supply them the practical experience needed to perform surgery on those troubles that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and protect against countless complications which the feet regularly encounter.
