Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. Our doctors put in an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and several podiatry programs are located within these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 - 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Doctors have gained comprehensive healthcare instruction with a main focus on issues pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to care for problems stretching from usual ailments such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more intricate including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have extensive surgical education which provide them the expertise necessary to perform surgery on those conditions that are ideally treated through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Having knowledge of biomechanics and gait deviations permits a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can provide pain relief and minimize the risk of numerous issues which the feet usually experience.
