Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in about 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programs are contained within these academic institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received significant healthcare training with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to treat problems varying from typical afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical education which give them the prior experience needed to perform surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Podiatric doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and help prevent many problems which the feet normally encounter.
