Podiatrists: Dr. Corey Drew

Cochrane Podiatrist & Foot Clinic

Medical professionals here at The Foot Institute – Cochrane specialize in the surgical and medical therapy of the ankle and foot. They spend an average of a decade in higher education, the first 4 years in undergrad studies to acquire a Bachelors Degree, and the 2nd 4 years in Medical School to secure a Podiatric Medical Degree. Podiatric Medical School corresponds to conventional medical school and in reality numerous podiatry programs lie inside these institutions. After securing a Podiatric Medial Degree, Doctors at the Foot Institute carry out a hospital "internship" or residency for another 1 - 3 years.

At the finalization of the internship or post degree residency, our Podiatric physicians have obtained significant health care education with an attention to on complications regarding the feet and ankles. Our Doctors are educated to address problems stretching from familiar ailments for instance, fungal and ingrown toe nails, to those which are more complex for example clubfoot, bunions, or reconstructive surgery of the foot. Our Doctors have extensive surgical training which furnish them the skill necessary to perform surgical treatment on those problems that are best treated through surgical treatment.

Our Doctors also have an extensive expertise and understanding of biomechanics, which is the study of the forces which the legs and feet endure as we walk, run or carry out other tasks. Recognizing biomechanics and gait abnormalities makes it possible for a Podiatrist to create footwear and orthotics which can provide pain relief and protect against many conditions which the feet normally encounter.
