Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest around ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to have a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles traditional medical school and in fact several podiatry programs are contained within these schools. Upon getting 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 residency, our Podiatrists have received significant health care education with a concentration on conditions involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to treat concerns ranging from typical disorders such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more challenging for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical instruction which provide them the expertise needed to conduct surgery on those complications that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and protect against a large number of troubles which the feet frequently encounter.
