Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in reality many podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained comprehensive medical training with a main focus on difficulties concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are qualified to handle difficulties varying from conventional problems such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which furnish them the experience crucial to perform surgery on those complications that are ideally managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of a large number of problems which the feet frequently experience.
