Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and as a matter of fact numerous podiatry training programs are located within these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired extensive health care education with an emphasis on problems concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to deal with conditions ranging from typical afflictions like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the expertise essential to conduct surgery on those conditions that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems makes it easy for a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics that can give pain relief and prevent countless conditions which the feet typically encounter.
