Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They put in approximately ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and numerous podiatry programs lie inside these institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received wide-ranging medical training with a stress on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to treat difficulties ranging from familiar afflictions for example, ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are a lot more perplexing such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the practical experience necessary to conduct surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities allows a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent numerous issues which the feet regularly encounter.
