Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They invest an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in reality a number of podiatry programs lie within these schools. Upon acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have gained thorough medical instruction with a focus on conditions involving the ankles and feet. They are trained to treat complications ranging from common afflictions for instance fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more obscure like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical instruction which provide them the prior experience required to execute surgery on those problems that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics that can provide pain relief and protect against a large number of problems which the feet normally encounter.
