Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest around ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in fact numerous podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have gained wide-ranging medical training with a stress on problems regarding the feet and ankles. They are studied to handle difficulties ranging from typical disorders like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more perplexing like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience necessary to execute surgery on those conditions that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against a large number of problems which the feet generally encounter.
