Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programs lie within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received significant medical instruction with a main focus on complications involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are taught to deal with concerns stretching from basic conditions like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more challenging for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the experience needed to execute surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of many conditions which the feet normally encounter.
