Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and various podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired considerable health care training with a focus on issues regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to address concerns varying from regular problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more challenging for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the skill essential to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatric physician to create footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and protect against a large number of problems which the feet usually encounter.
