Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest about 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in reality several podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received substantial medical education with a concentration on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are trained to treat difficulties varying from simple conditions for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more challenging such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical instruction which give them the experience crucial to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent many problems which the feet routinely encounter.
