Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry training programs are located within these academic institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have acquired wide-ranging health care education with an emphasis on issues concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address conditions ranging from regular disorders for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more complicated including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical training which provide them the practical experience necessary to carry out surgery on those complications that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent many complications which the feet regularly experience.
