Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors invest about a decade in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to get a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. After receiving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have received extensive health care training with an attention to on conditions pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are taught to handle problems ranging from typical problems for example, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more intricate for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have extensive surgical education which provide them the expertise necessary to execute surgery on those complications that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait peculiarities facilitates a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and reduce the chances of many issues which the feet usually encounter.
