Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programs are contained within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained significant health care training with an importance on conditions involving the ankles and feet. They are taught to care for issues stretching from common afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical training which supply them the prior experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and avoid a large number of issues which the feet generally encounter.
