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 ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend an average of a decade in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact numerous podiatry programs lie within these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received thorough medical training with a main focus on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to care for problems ranging from regular ailments like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more sophisticated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical instruction which give them the experience vital to conduct surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent countless conditions which the feet frequently encounter.
