Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in reality various podiatry programmes lie within these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have received substantial medical training with a stress on problems involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to address problems ranging from conventional afflictions such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical education which supply them the prior experience vital to carry out surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous problems which the feet typically encounter.
