Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to usual medical school and in fact numerous podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have received wide-ranging health care education with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are instructed to manage concerns extending from common ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical training which furnish them the skill vital to carry out surgery on those concerns that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough expertise 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities enables a Podiatric physician to design shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and protect against many problems which the feet generally encounter.
