Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Calgary Downtown Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Physicians here at The Foot Institute – Calgary Downtown specialise in the medical and surgical treatment of the foot and ankle. Our podiatrists invest approximately ten years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergraduate studies to receive a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to acquire a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School is similar to usual medical school and in point of fact numerous podiatry training programs are contained within these institutions. After achieving a Podiatric Medial Degree, Podiatrists at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or post degree residency for another one to three years.

At the conclusion of the internship or residency, our Podiatrists have received extensive medical training with a main focus on problems pertaining to the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are trained to treat problems extending from normal problems like fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are a lot more puzzling for instance, clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have thorough surgical training which give them the experience required to execute surgery on those concerns that are best handled through surgical treatment.

Foot Institute Doctors furthermore have a comprehensive 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. Realizing biomechanics and gait deviations allows a Foot doctor to create shoes and orthotics that can give pain relief and minimize the risk of many conditions which the feet normally experience.
