Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors spend an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact numerous podiatry training programs are contained inside these schools. After acquiring 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 fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained extensive medical education with a main focus on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to handle issues extending from usual afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the experience needed to conduct surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to create footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and reduce the chances of many problems which the feet usually experience.
