Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles usual medical school and actually several podiatry programs are contained within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have gained extensive healthcare instruction with a main focus on complications pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are qualified to address problems varying from common disorders such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which provide them the practical experience crucial to conduct surgical treatment on those complications that are ideally remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and defend against numerous issues which the feet generally encounter.
