Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programs are contained inside these institutions. Upon receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive healthcare instruction with an importance on complications regarding the ankles and feet. They are trained to handle concerns extending from standard conditions for instance ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are much more challenging including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical training which give them the prior experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Foot doctor to create footwear and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and defend against countless problems which the feet regularly experience.
