Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs are located within these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received considerable healthcare instruction with a main focus on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to treat concerns varying from simple ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical education which supply them the experience essential to conduct surgery on those complications that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and defend against numerous conditions which the feet routinely experience.
