Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors invest approximately 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs lie inside these academic institutions. Upon securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Doctors have obtained considerable medical training with an emphasis on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. They are educated to treat concerns stretching from common ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more perplexing for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have thorough surgical education which furnish them the experience necessary to execute surgical treatment on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and avoid many issues which the feet frequently encounter.
