Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors put in around a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to typical medical school and in point of fact several podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive medical training with an attention to on issues involving the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are educated to treat issues stretching from common conditions such as ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are far more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have comprehensive surgical training which furnish them the experience necessary to perform surgery on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Knowing biomechanics and gait abnormalities enables a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and defend against numerous problems which the feet frequently experience.
