Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend approximately ten years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in reality quite a number podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have gained comprehensive medical instruction with an emphasis on concerns concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to handle problems varying from usual ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are much more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical instruction which give them the skill crucial to perform surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations facilitates a Foot doctor to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and reduce the chances of many problems which the feet commonly encounter.
