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 ankle and foot. Our doctors invest an average of 10 years in learning, the first four years in undergrad 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 standard medical school and in reality several podiatry programs are located within these academic institutions. After procuring a Podiatric Medial Degree, Physicians at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 to 3 years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatric doctors have received extensive healthcare education with an importance on conditions involving the ankles and feet. They are skilled to manage problems varying from familiar conditions such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are even more puzzling like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have comprehensive surgical instruction which furnish them the experience vital to conduct surgical treatment on those issues that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors likewise have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs withstand as we walk, run or perform other activities. Realizing biomechanics and gait irregularities enables a Podiatrist to create shoes and orthotics which can offer pain relief and help prevent a large number of complications which the feet commonly encounter.
