Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They put in around ten years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to standard medical school and in reality various podiatry programs lie inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received thorough medical education with a stress on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are taught to manage concerns varying from usual disorders like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more challenging such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical instruction which give them the practical experience crucial to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems allows a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and prevent countless issues which the feet regularly encounter.
