Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote approximately 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programs are located inside these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have acquired substantial healthcare training with a focus on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to treat problems varying from familiar disorders for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical instruction which furnish them the expertise necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatric doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous issues which the feet generally encounter.
