Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists invest approximately 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and in fact many podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have obtained substantial medical training with a concentration on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to manage complications ranging from basic ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complicated for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical instruction which furnish them the skill necessary to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

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 undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of countless conditions which the feet generally experience.
