Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote about 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained considerable healthcare education with an importance on issues involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to deal with complications ranging from normal ailments such as ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more obscure for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical training which provide them the experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid a large number of conditions which the feet regularly experience.
