Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and actually many podiatry training programs are contained within these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired thorough medical education with a stress on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are studied to treat issues stretching from usual problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more intricate for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical education which provide them the prior experience essential to perform surgical treatment on those complications that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and prevent numerous troubles which the feet frequently encounter.
