Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received comprehensive health care instruction with an emphasis on complications involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat problems ranging from typical ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more challenging like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical instruction which supply them the prior experience needed to carry out surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and defend against countless problems which the feet frequently encounter.
