Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend an average of a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in reality various podiatry programs are contained inside these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained considerable medical training with a stress on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to treat concerns ranging from general ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which provide them the skill necessary to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and defend against many troubles which the feet frequently experience.
