Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote around a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry training programs lie within these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired comprehensive medical education with an attention to on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to address complications stretching from normal problems such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which supply them the skill needed to carry out surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and help prevent a large number of conditions which the feet typically experience.
