Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical treatment of the ankle and foot. Our podiatrists spend an average of 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to obtain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to attain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles typical medical school and in reality various podiatry training programs are located inside these academic institutions. Upon obtaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute undertake a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatrists have gained considerable healthcare instruction with an importance on conditions concerning the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to manage concerns extending from common disorders for instance, fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are even more challenging for example, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at the Foot Institute have thorough surgical instruction which provide them the prior experience necessary to perform surgery on those complications that are best managed through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute likewise have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Knowing biomechanics and gait peculiarities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can give pain relief and reduce the chances of many problems which the feet routinely encounter.
