WILLIAM S. COREY, MD
Foot & Ankle Specialist
Dr. William Corey loved sports from an early age. “I was fairly athletic growing up, playing sports in high school, and that’s what attracted me to orthopedics. I played basketball, soccer, baseball and did track.” And, yes, he probably would have played football, if his small school had a team. Now specializing in orthopedic medicine, he treats athletic injuries as well as other issues relating to the bone and muscles. Dr Corey uses the latest advancements in ankle replacement and is trained to aspirate a patient’s bone marrow and use the cells to enhance the healing of a fracture. “I enjoy helping people stay active, or become active again.” – William Corey, MD
