Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of 10 years in learning, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and various podiatry programs are located inside these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive healthcare instruction with a concentration on conditions regarding the ankles and feet. They are instructed to care for complications stretching from basic afflictions such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more sophisticated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical education which provide them the experience crucial to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough 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 activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Podiatric physician to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and defend against numerous conditions which the feet frequently encounter.
