Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors put in an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in fact several podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained extensive healthcare training with an emphasis on problems involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are qualified to care for difficulties ranging from typical ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which give them the prior experience required to conduct surgery on those concerns that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and prevent numerous troubles which the feet frequently experience.
