Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists devote approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to regular medical school and in point of fact a number of podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained thorough medical instruction with an emphasis on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are studied to care for difficulties stretching from conventional problems for example, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more complex such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical training which give them the expertise necessary to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have an extensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Comprehending biomechanics and gait irregularities permits a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can offer pain relief and defend against many problems which the feet usually encounter.
