Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in fact numerous podiatry training programs are contained within these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Doctors have gained wide-ranging medical training with a concentration on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to treat concerns ranging from conventional conditions for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are more complicated for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which give them the prior experience required to perform surgery on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities facilitates a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and avoid numerous problems which the feet generally experience.
