Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and actually many podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. Upon procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received comprehensive medical instruction with an importance on issues concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to handle problems varying from basic ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more obscure for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical training which provide them the experience essential to conduct surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatric doctor to design footwear and orthotics that can offer pain relief and defend against many problems which the feet frequently encounter.
