Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend an average of ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and several podiatry training programs lie inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired thorough medical education with an importance on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are studied to deal with complications stretching from basic ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more perplexing for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which give them the experience vital to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough 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. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and defend against a large number of troubles which the feet commonly encounter.
