Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and actually various podiatry programs lie inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained comprehensive healthcare education with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are qualified to care for issues ranging from standard ailments such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the experience required to perform surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and avoid many issues which the feet frequently encounter.
