Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in reality various podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive medical instruction with a concentration on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to address issues ranging from familiar ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical training which provide them the experience crucial to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive 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 activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of problems which the feet frequently experience.
