Patient Reviews
Jan 14, 2021
I needed hip replacement surgery and then fell out of bed AND NEEDED it immediately. Dr. Meldrum introduced himself to me at the hospital and we were going to have surgery the next day. Unfortunately tests ran over time and surgery was moved to Weds. Dr. Meldrum kept me calm and notified me of all the goings on leading up to surgery. He is a Saint! Despite being in pain and all by myself I was SO happy to have Dr. Meldrum at bat for me!
