Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programmes are located inside these academic institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired considerable medical training with a concentration on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are skilled to care for issues ranging from normal afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical training which furnish them the prior experience essential to conduct surgery on those issues that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

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 undergo as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait irregularities makes it easy for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and help prevent a large number of troubles which the feet typically experience.
