Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and several podiatry training programs lie within these academic institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have obtained considerable health care training with an emphasis on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to treat conditions extending from common ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more sophisticated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which provide them the skill required to execute surgery on those issues that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of countless issues which the feet normally encounter.
