Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our doctors spend approximately 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and actually many podiatry programmes are located inside these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have acquired significant health care instruction with an emphasis on issues involving the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are trained to address issues extending from standard ailments like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are much more intricate such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical education which give them the practical experience vital to execute surgery on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have an extensive 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. Knowing biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and prevent a large number of complications which the feet frequently experience.
