Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote about ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to regular medical school and actually a number of podiatry programs are located within these schools. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Doctors have acquired thorough healthcare instruction with a focus on issues regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address problems extending from basic problems for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more complex for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical education which provide them the experience necessary to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and protect against numerous troubles which the feet routinely experience.
