Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors devote approximately 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and several podiatry training programs lie within these institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received significant healthcare training with a stress on concerns pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to address conditions stretching from basic ailments for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical training which furnish them the experience vital to perform surgery on those complications that are ideally managed through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors 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 activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatrist to develop shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and reduce the chances of a large number of problems which the feet usually encounter.
