Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors invest an average of ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and as a matter of fact many podiatry programmes lie inside these institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have obtained extensive medical instruction with a stress on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are educated to handle issues extending from typical ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more perplexing for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical education which give them the experience crucial to execute surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of many conditions which the feet routinely experience.
