Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Specialists at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of 10 years in education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry training programs are located inside these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received comprehensive healthcare instruction with an emphasis on problems concerning the ankles and feet. Our Doctors are skilled to treat complications varying from conventional disorders like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are a lot more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical training which provide them the practical experience necessary to execute surgery on those issues that are best remedied through surgical treatment.

Doctors at the Foot Institute also have a thorough expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems facilitates a Foot doctor to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against many troubles which the feet typically encounter.
