Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Foot Institute Podiatrists devote about ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and actually numerous podiatry programmes are contained inside these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received extensive medical training with a stress on issues pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are trained to treat conditions stretching from typical ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical education which provide them the prior experience essential to conduct surgery on those conditions that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems enables a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet typically experience.
