Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Red Deer Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Red Deer focus on the surgical and medical treatment of the foot and ankle. They invest approximately ten years in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to get a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to traditional medical school and actually various podiatry programmes are located inside these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute finish a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional one to three years.

At the fulfillment of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have obtained substantial healthcare training with a concentration on issues pertaining to the feet and ankles. Foot Institute Doctors are educated to handle complications ranging from standard ailments like ingrown and fungal toe nails, to those which are more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have thorough surgical education which give them the experience required to carry out surgical treatment on those troubles that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Our Doctors additionally have an extensive practical knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs receive as we walk, run or perform other tasks. Understanding biomechanics and gait problems enables a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics that can deliver pain relief and protect against many complications which the feet typically experience.
