Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of ten years in education, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and in reality various podiatry training programs lie within these schools. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received comprehensive health care instruction with an emphasis on issues concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to care for issues ranging from standard ailments such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical education which provide them the practical experience required to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet receive as we walk, run or perform other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid a large number of issues which the feet usually encounter.
