Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and actually numerous podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received wide-ranging medical education with a concentration on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address difficulties stretching from commonplace conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which provide them the experience necessary to execute surgery on those troubles that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive 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. Understanding biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and defend against a large number of problems which the feet usually experience.
