Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists invest about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to standard medical school and in fact various podiatry programs are contained within these institutions. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained thorough health care instruction with an emphasis on difficulties pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to deal with difficulties ranging from familiar conditions for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical training which give them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and minimize the risk of countless problems which the feet usually encounter.
