Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors spend about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry training programs are contained within these institutions. Upon attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received substantial healthcare education with a concentration on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to treat concerns extending from usual afflictions such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more complicated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical education which supply them the skill necessary to perform surgery on those concerns that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities permits a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous conditions which the feet routinely experience.
