Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote an average of a decade in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in fact many podiatry programs are located inside these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired substantial medical education with an importance on complications regarding the feet and ankles. They are trained to care for complications stretching from conventional ailments for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which furnish them the practical experience essential to execute surgery on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and avoid numerous conditions which the feet frequently encounter.
