Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in reality several podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received substantial health care instruction with a stress on concerns involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to treat difficulties ranging from conventional disorders like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more challenging for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have significant surgical training which supply them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and protect against a large number of conditions which the feet generally encounter.
