Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer concentrate on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They put in about 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the following four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and in fact a number of podiatry programmes lie within these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Foot doctors have received wide-ranging medical education with a focus on problems regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to treat conditions extending from common disorders such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more perplexing like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which supply them the experience needed to carry out surgery on those problems that are ideally treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a comprehensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Comprehending biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and protect against numerous problems which the feet commonly encounter.
