Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles general medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry programs are contained inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained extensive healthcare training with a concentration on conditions concerning the ankles and feet. They are studied to care for issues varying from familiar afflictions like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have significant surgical education which provide them the experience required to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and minimize the risk of a large number of complications which the feet regularly experience.
