Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry programmes are located within these institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained extensive health care instruction with a focus on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. They are studied to deal with problems stretching from standard conditions like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which supply them the expertise necessary to perform surgery on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous conditions which the feet usually encounter.
