Your trust is our top concern.
We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.
We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.
Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.
All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.
My daughter was feeling anxious to get her shots. Dr Mcclelland address all of hers and my questions. We didn’t feel in a rush at all and even thiugh I was late to the appointment he was joking around and didn’t bring that up. Very nice doctor.

Very knowledgeable and kind. Takes the time to talk to my son and see how he is doing during visits and listens to my sons stories. Reassuring and great advice each visit. Highly recommended.

Dr. McClellan does a great job relating to my son and getting him ready to understand how his body will be growing/changing each year. It was important to us to have our son feel comfortable going to a Dr. who is a male role model and Dr. McClellan has been ideal.

Dr. McClellan makes everything better!!
My 8 year old son has had multiple surgeries since birth & is terrified of most all doctor visits... Except when he knows it’s Dr. McClellan he’s going to see. He’s kind, compassionate, and he LISTENS to all our concerns. He addresses everything and puts everyone at ease.
I wish every doctor could offer the love & concern & care & consideration that Dr. McClellan shows to us! He’s a really good guy! We love our pediatrician!
