Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest an average of ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in point of fact various podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have obtained significant medical training with a stress on concerns concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are trained to manage issues stretching from typical disorders for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical education which supply them the practical experience essential to conduct surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and help prevent countless conditions which the feet typically encounter.
