Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors spend an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained substantial medical education with a focus on issues regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are qualified to treat difficulties varying from familiar ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more challenging like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which provide them the experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of many complications which the feet normally experience.
