Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Doctors at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our doctors invest about 10 years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the following 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to conventional medical school and in reality several podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After acquiring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

Upon the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have acquired thorough healthcare training with a stress on complications regarding the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are instructed to handle problems ranging from simple ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are far more perplexing including clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which provide them the experience essential to carry out surgical treatment on those issues that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough 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 tasks. Learning about biomechanics and gait problems empowers a Foot doctor to develop footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and avoid a large number of complications which the feet frequently encounter.
