Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists spend about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry programs are contained inside these institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received substantial medical training with an emphasis on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to address concerns ranging from usual problems for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical training which supply them the experience required to perform surgery on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent a large number of conditions which the feet typically experience.
