Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They put in around 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and numerous podiatry programs are contained inside these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained considerable health care training with a stress on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to address complications varying from basic afflictions like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical training which provide them the experience required to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent countless problems which the feet usually encounter.
