Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They put in an average of ten years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained thorough health care training with an emphasis on conditions involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to deal with concerns stretching from usual afflictions like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical training which provide them the experience vital to conduct surgical treatment on those complications that are best treated through surgical treatment.

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 submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and minimize the risk of many issues which the feet usually encounter.
