Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry programmes are contained within these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained encompassing medical instruction with an emphasis on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to handle complications varying from simple conditions such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical education which supply them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems permits a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet normally encounter.
