Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Calgary Downtown Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Calgary Downtown focus on the medical and surgical treatment of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of a decade in higher education, the first four years in undergraduate studies to secure a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to obtain a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to general medical school and in reality many podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After attaining a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for an additional 1 to 3 years.

Upon the conclusion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have acquired extensive health care training with an attention to on conditions involving the feet and ankles. They are qualified to care for problems extending from standard disorders for example, ingrown and fungal toenails, to those which are a lot more perplexing like clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have comprehensive surgical instruction which provide them the practical experience needed to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best managed through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors furthermore have a thorough practical 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 tasks. Realizing biomechanics and gait peculiarities empowers a Podiatrist to design footwear and orthotics which can give pain relief and protect against a large number of complications which the feet typically encounter.
