Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and quite a number podiatry programmes are contained within these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained comprehensive healthcare instruction with an importance on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to treat issues ranging from basic ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more challenging like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which give them the practical experience needed to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a comprehensive expertise 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 abnormalities enables a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and prevent many issues which the feet generally encounter.
