Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and quite a number podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained considerable health care education with an emphasis on complications concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to treat problems stretching from commonplace disorders like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which supply them the prior experience required to carry out surgical treatment on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of a large number of conditions which the feet commonly experience.
