Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and actually many podiatry programs lie inside these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained encompassing healthcare education with an emphasis on complications involving the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address conditions ranging from general afflictions for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more complicated such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have considerable surgical training which give them the experience required to execute surgery on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive 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. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities allows a Podiatric physician to develop shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent countless complications which the feet usually encounter.
