Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote around 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained significant medical education with a main focus on problems involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to care for issues extending from commonplace ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical training which give them the expertise necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have an extensive 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 tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent many issues which the feet routinely experience.
