Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. They devote about ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry training programs lie within these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have gained significant medical training with a focus on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to deal with conditions stretching from commonplace problems such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the experience required to execute surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of countless issues which the feet usually encounter.
