Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors put in an average of ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in fact various podiatry programs are contained inside these institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained thorough medical instruction with a stress on difficulties involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to address difficulties ranging from basic afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the skill necessary to carry out surgery on those conditions that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise 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 perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and defend against many troubles which the feet routinely encounter.
