Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists invest an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in reality several podiatry programmes lie inside these academic institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received wide-ranging health care training with a focus on complications involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are educated to treat complications ranging from typical afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the prior experience vital to carry out surgery on those conditions that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and minimize the risk of many issues which the feet frequently encounter.
