Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote an average of ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in point of fact various podiatry training programs are contained inside these academic institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received wide-ranging medical instruction with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to treat complications varying from usual ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which furnish them the experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those complications that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and avoid a large number of conditions which the feet generally experience.
