Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in about ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive health care education with a concentration on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to manage problems ranging from common ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more complicated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical training which furnish them the skill vital to perform surgery on those troubles that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and defend against numerous complications which the feet frequently encounter.
