Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical doctors here at The Foot Institute – Red Deer specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists put in around a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergrad studies to attain a Bachelors Degree, and the second 4 years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School resembles regular medical school and in point of fact quite a number podiatry training programs are located inside these schools. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for another one to three years.

At the finalization of the internship or residency, our Podiatric physicians have received encompassing medical training with a concentration on complications concerning the ankles and feet. Foot Institute Doctors are qualified to address problems ranging from normal problems like fungal and ingrown toenails, to those which are more obscure such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Doctors at The Foot Institute have substantial surgical instruction which provide them the experience necessary to conduct surgery on those conditions that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs undergo as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Learning about biomechanics and gait deviations empowers a Podiatric physician to create footwear and orthotics which can offer pain relief and defend against many conditions which the feet normally encounter.
