Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Calgary Signal Hill Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Dr.’s at The Foot Institute – Calgary Signal Hill specialize in the medical and surgical therapy of the foot and ankle. They invest around 10 years in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to achieve a Bachelors Degree, and the second four years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to traditional medical school and as a matter of fact various podiatry programmes are located within these academic institutions. After getting a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute complete a hospital "internship" or residency for yet another 1 - 3 years.

At the completion of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric doctors have obtained extensive health care training with a focus on problems pertaining to the ankles and feet. They are educated to handle issues ranging from commonplace ailments such as fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are far more puzzling such as clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our physicians have considerable surgical instruction which furnish them the prior experience essential to carry out surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical intervention.

Doctors at the Foot Institute additionally have a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the feet and legs experience as we walk, run or carry out other activities. Recognizing biomechanics and gait irregularities empowers a Podiatrist to design shoes and orthotics which can deliver pain relief and prevent countless issues which the feet frequently encounter.
