Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in reality many podiatry training programs lie within these academic institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive health care education with a main focus on complications concerning the ankles and feet. They are trained to handle concerns varying from commonplace ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more complex like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have extensive surgical instruction which supply them the skill crucial to perform surgery on those problems that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics that can give pain relief and defend against countless complications which the feet routinely experience.
