This was a yearly checkup, but I am experiencing an issue with my left knee. Dr. McElderry checked it out very well and wants me to see a specialist. I am very pleased with the outcome of my appointment. Dr. McElderry has always done an amazing job of taking care of me and my family!! He's amazing!

I think the world of Dr. McElderry, and feel so lucky to have him for my doctor! He's been the best doctor I have ever had in my lifetime. He cares so much. His expertise in everything is quite impressive! The Methodist System is fortunate to have him!

I love Dr. McElderry. We got off to a slow start (that was many years ago), but things have improved drastically. He would tell you that I wasn't invested in my healthcare. I wasn't. I had a lot going on in my personal life that distracted me. Things have changed for the better. When the patient is invested, the doctor will be invested. I stayed with him, and he stayed with me.
