Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. They devote about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and many podiatry training programs are contained within these academic institutions. After obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have received thorough medical training with a concentration on conditions regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are instructed to address problems varying from normal ailments for instance, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are far more complex including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have significant surgical education which furnish them the prior experience vital to perform surgery on those issues that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough expertise 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait deviations makes it possible for a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics that can provide pain relief and defend against numerous complications which the feet regularly encounter.
