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 foot and ankle. They invest an average of a decade in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and in fact many podiatry programs are contained inside these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have gained encompassing medical training with a main focus on complications concerning the feet and ankles. They are taught to care for problems ranging from simple afflictions for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which provide them the experience needed to conduct surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities permits a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and avoid a large number of conditions which the feet routinely encounter.
