Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists spend around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in point of fact many podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have received significant medical training with an importance on problems involving the feet and ankles. They are trained to address conditions stretching from standard disorders like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complicated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which provide them the skill necessary to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and defend against numerous troubles which the feet typically encounter.
