One of the best medical experiences ever

Dr. Caldwell is an exemplary surgeon. He takes his time with examination and explanation, both before and after surgery. I found him to be meticulous in his procedure, and to value the quality of his work over any other factor. After both a shoulder repair and later an elbow ligament repair, I highly recommend Dr. Caldwell as a top notch Orthopedic surgeon.

Professional care with above and beyond staff

Dr. Caldwell treats you with respect while also not sugar coating anything in a patients recovery process. His extensive experience, along with his will to listen to the patient. This really allowed me to 100% rest my mind and know that I’m in the best hands possible

Can't Say Enough Good Things

After over thirty years in law enforcement my nature is not to trust folks. I train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu pretty serioulsy and, as a result, injured my knee. I was referred to Dr. Caldwell by one of our blackbelts. From my first visit until I was released some four and a half months later, Dr. Caldwell and ALL of his staff were the consumate professionals. They actually listened to me and my needs and never acted as they were the "smartest people in the room." I was seen on time or before time for every visit. My surgery went off without a hitch and my recovery was flawless thanks to their guidance. I don't say this lightly but I would recommend Dr. Caldwell and his staff to anyone that wants to stay active. Thank you Dr. Caldwell and staff!
