Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Podiatrists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Doctors devote around ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and numerous podiatry training programs are contained within these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have acquired substantial healthcare training with a stress on difficulties concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to care for problems ranging from commonplace problems for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more sophisticated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical education which supply them the practical experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are ideally remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities allows a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and avoid countless problems which the feet routinely encounter.
