Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in around ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received significant medical education with an importance on concerns regarding the ankles and feet. They are skilled to treat problems ranging from familiar ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more complicated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical education which give them the expertise required to carry out surgical treatment on those conditions that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent many troubles which the feet normally experience.
