Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in an average of a decade in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in fact various podiatry training programs lie within these schools. Upon achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have acquired comprehensive medical training with a main focus on complications involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to treat concerns varying from standard afflictions like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more obscure for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which furnish them the experience necessary to carry out surgical treatment on those concerns that are ideally handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute furthermore have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatric doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and defend against many conditions which the feet commonly encounter.
