Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists invest about ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and actually various podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received comprehensive medical training with an emphasis on issues concerning the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address problems extending from normal conditions such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more challenging for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the experience needed to conduct surgical treatment on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems makes it possible for a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
