Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote about a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in fact a number of podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired significant medical training with a main focus on difficulties pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to treat conditions ranging from familiar disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical training which give them the expertise necessary to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of countless conditions which the feet typically encounter.
