Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in point of fact many podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received encompassing healthcare instruction with an importance on issues regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to address concerns varying from conventional ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more challenging like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical instruction which supply them the experience necessary to carry out surgery on those concerns that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore 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. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid many conditions which the feet normally encounter.
