Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and as a matter of fact several podiatry programmes are located inside these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Foot doctors have acquired comprehensive health care instruction with an emphasis on problems concerning the ankles and feet. They are trained to care for concerns ranging from conventional problems for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more intricate for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have significant surgical instruction which provide them the expertise vital to execute surgical treatment on those conditions that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet submit to as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it easy for a Podiatric doctor to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet commonly experience.
