Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact a number of podiatry programmes are contained within these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired thorough healthcare training with a main focus on complications involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to treat problems extending from normal ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more challenging such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which give them the skill necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those conditions that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it possible for a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent numerous troubles which the feet frequently encounter.
