Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in point of fact several podiatry training programs are contained within these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have obtained considerable healthcare instruction with an emphasis on complications regarding the feet and ankles. They are taught to deal with issues ranging from commonplace ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical training which supply them the skill necessary to execute surgical treatment on those troubles that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive 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 tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous conditions which the feet normally experience.
