Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in about 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry training programs are contained inside these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained thorough medical instruction with a stress on problems involving the ankles and feet. They are instructed to treat difficulties stretching from regular ailments for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which give them the skill needed to perform surgery on those concerns that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and prevent a large number of conditions which the feet regularly encounter.
