Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest an average of ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and actually many podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received comprehensive medical education with a focus on problems involving the ankles and feet. They are studied to deal with conditions extending from typical ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical training which supply them the skill crucial to carry out surgical treatment on those conditions that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric physician to develop footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and minimize the risk of countless issues which the feet routinely encounter.
