Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. They devote an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the next 4 years in Medical School to receive a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles standard medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry programs are located within these schools. Upon getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute perform a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained substantial medical education with a focus on complications pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are skilled to deal with complications stretching from simple ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are even more intricate like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical education which give them the expertise necessary to perform surgical treatment on those issues that are best handled through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can bestow pain relief and protect against countless complications which the feet typically encounter.
