  • “Dr. McDowell used a thorough physical exam and several x-rays to diagnose the problem I was having with pain in the right leg and knee, finding the main problem is arthritis. He prescribed a shot in the knee as needed from three to six months apart. He carefully instructs his nurse as to the help she provides. I couldn't be more pleased with the treatment.”

  • “My second hip replacement with Dr. Eilerman and I can't say how thankful I am to be able to move again without horrible pain. I have a friend who just had a hip replacement done the "posterior" way and comparing my recovery to hers and the amount of pain. I'm so happy to have had the Anterior hip replacement. Dr. Eilerman will spend time with you and address your questions and concerns and also lets you have input into your treatments. I have and will continue to refer people to him. Thank you, Dr. Eilerman. ”
