Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and several podiatry programmes are contained inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained significant medical training with a focus on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are taught to treat complications varying from commonplace afflictions such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the skill required to carry out surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of many conditions which the feet normally encounter.
