Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes are contained inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained extensive health care education with an importance on problems involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat conditions extending from regular ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more complicated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical training which give them the prior experience crucial to carry out surgery on those concerns that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and protect against countless troubles which the feet commonly encounter.
