Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors devote around ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to general medical school and in fact a number of podiatry programs are located inside these institutions. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received wide-ranging health care education with a concentration on conditions involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are studied to address conditions varying from typical ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more sophisticated for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which furnish them the skill required to carry out surgical treatment on those conditions that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs endure as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and avoid many complications which the feet generally encounter.
