Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes lie within these schools. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received wide-ranging medical instruction with an emphasis on issues regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to treat concerns varying from conventional ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the prior experience required to carry out surgery on those concerns that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous problems which the feet regularly encounter.
