Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Health professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest approximately a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have received significant health care instruction with a main focus on problems concerning the ankles and feet. They are skilled to treat conditions varying from familiar problems for instance ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which furnish them the experience needed to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent numerous conditions which the feet generally encounter.
