Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in fact several podiatry training programs lie inside these schools. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired wide-ranging health care training with an emphasis on complications regarding the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are skilled to treat problems ranging from basic ailments for instance fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more complicated like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have substantial surgical education which supply them the experience essential to carry out surgery on those problems that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet go through as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations enables a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and help prevent countless problems which the feet regularly experience.
