Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer provide services for the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. Foot Institute Doctors devote an average of 10 years in education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles conventional medical school and in reality a number of podiatry training programs lie within these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the completion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have gained wide-ranging health care training with an importance on complications regarding the ankles and feet. They are qualified to care for problems ranging from commonplace ailments like ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are even more puzzling for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have substantial surgical training which give them the experience required to perform surgical treatment on those concerns that are best remedied through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs go through as we walk, run or perform other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait abnormalities empowers a Podiatric doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and reduce the chances of countless troubles which the feet routinely experience.
