Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in an average of ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in reality many podiatry programs are contained inside these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have gained thorough health care instruction with a stress on complications pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are instructed to deal with problems stretching from regular ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which provide them the experience needed to execute surgery on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough 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. Understanding biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and minimize the risk of many troubles which the feet routinely experience.
