Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Podiatrists put in approximately ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and many podiatry programmes are located inside these institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have obtained extensive healthcare instruction with a concentration on concerns involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are educated to manage problems varying from general ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more challenging for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical instruction which give them the prior experience required to execute surgical treatment on those troubles that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and help prevent many issues which the feet usually encounter.
