Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in point of fact many podiatry training programs lie inside these institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained extensive medical instruction with a focus on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address complications varying from simple ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical training which give them the prior experience required to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems permits a Podiatrist to develop footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent countless conditions which the feet regularly experience.
