Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend about a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and actually a number of podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained extensive health care instruction with an importance on complications concerning the ankles and feet. They are educated to handle conditions ranging from usual ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical education which provide them the expertise required to perform surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent many conditions which the feet routinely encounter.
