Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors spend around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in fact quite a number podiatry programs are contained inside these schools. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another 1 to 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired extensive medical instruction with an emphasis on complications involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to treat issues extending from standard ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which give them the experience vital to perform surgery on those troubles that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics that can bestow pain relief and avoid numerous troubles which the feet routinely experience.
