MaleAbout Grant D. Starkey
Grant Starkey, MD, credits his parents for influencing his career path. He developed a love for science because his father holds a doctorate in agronomy. Meanwhile, his understanding of caring stemmed from his mother’s work as a small-town veterinarian.
“I got to see just how much everybody appreciated what she did for them,” said Dr. Starkey, an internist with Methodist Physicians Clinic. “And it inspired me to want to go into a career field where I was able to serve others as well.”
He chose internal medicine because of the diversity of conditions he’s able to treat and his ability to see patients at the clinic and in the hospital.
“What I value most in my profession is the relationships I build with patients and their families,” he said. “As a primary care provider, I have the privilege of fostering long-term relationships. I get to know my patients as individuals, supporting them through their challenges and celebrating their successes along the way.”
Dr. Starkey believes his job is to help patients make informed decisions about their health.
“My role is to help explain to them the best options and what might make the best sense for them and their family,” he said.
Outside of work, Dr. Starkey enjoys supporting Husker athletics and traveling with his wife. During the fall, you’ll likely find him attending a Nebraska football game or chasing pheasants and quails with their two hunting dogs.

Dr Starkey was very empathetic regarding my care and other Info. For instance when we talked about providing my medical power of sttorney document for the file he clarified what some of my decisions actually meant. He continues to be very easy to talk to and shows he's truly listening.

I recommend Dr. Starkey to everyone. He is hands down the best doctor I've ever seen. He has always read other chart notes (PT, nephrology, etc) ahead of time and is ready to discuss them. He also spends as much time in the room with me as I need and never makes me feel like he is rushed. Dr. Starkey is a great example for other doctors when it comes to making a patient feel seen, heard, and cared about.

Dr Starkey is great! He was thorough, compassionate and seemed very knowledgeable I did not feel rushed and was able to get any questions I had answered. Once my test came back that afternoon he called me on the phone right away and explained my diagnosis and what I needed to do to recover. He also gave me an option of taking Paxlovid for my Covid diagnosis and explained that it may not be the best way to go since there was some adverse side effects. I appreciated his honesty and valued his opinion. He recommended some things I could do at home to help my symptoms. He stressed the importance of letting him know if my breathing symptoms worsened. The next day he followed up to see how I was doing.

I saw Dr Cooney for some 40yrs and had confidence in him. Seeing how much care and concern Dr Starkey demonstrated with my mom prompted me to choose him as my primary care doctor. He seems very knowledgeable.

My first appt. With. Dr. Starkey, annual exam. He had read my file and had a plan for our appt. ! I think a first for me. I can't say enough how much I appreciated his organization, knowledge, and professionalism. He had time to focus on me. He listened to me. I listened to him and I learned something on everything we discussed. He relayed the current medical research, facts, treatments. So impressive. A total breath of fresh air. Switching doctors can be tough sometimes. But Dr. Starkey is smart sharp kind and he made it easy. He has that bright light in his eyes that exudes passion for his work and compassion for his patient. I am so pleased to have him as my primary doctor.
