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. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in fact various podiatry training programs are located within these schools. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired thorough medical education with a focus on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are instructed to deal with conditions varying from regular problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which supply them the experience essential to carry out surgery on those conditions that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent many issues which the feet typically encounter.
