Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained comprehensive medical training with an attention to on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are taught to deal with concerns stretching from basic afflictions like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical instruction which furnish them the prior experience required to conduct surgery on those troubles that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatric physician to design footwear and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and help prevent countless complications which the feet normally encounter.
