Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest around ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to typical medical school and in reality several podiatry programmes are located within these schools. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 to 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained significant medical education with a stress on issues pertaining to the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to treat concerns ranging from standard problems such as fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are much more perplexing for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have considerable surgical education which supply them the expertise necessary to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs submit to as we walk, run or perform other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait irregularities facilitates a Foot doctor to develop shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and reduce the chances of numerous complications which the feet typically encounter.
