Trent McElroy, DO

Dr. Trent McElroy is a cardiovascular hospitalist at St. George Regional Medical Center, with clinical interests in cardiovascular physiology, endocrinology, and critical care medicine. He was drawn to medicine by a lifelong fascination with biology and physiology and remains passionate about continually expanding his knowledge and refining his practice to better serve his patients.

Dr. McElroy is especially fulfilled by cases that help patients understand what is happening with their health. He believes that education is one of the most powerful tools in medicine, empowering individuals to take ownership of their health, make informed decisions, and improve their overall quality of life.

His approach to patient care centers on a simple principle: doing for others what they cannot do for themselves. In an age when medical information is readily available yet often confusing or misleading, Dr. McElroy strives to bridge the gap between information and understanding. By combining medical expertise with clear communication, he helps patients navigate complex health concerns and develop treatment plans aligned with their needs and goals.

Dr. McElroy views healthcare as more than diagnosing and treating disease. He believes it is about helping patients achieve the best possible quality of life given their medical conditions. He is committed to ensuring that every patient feels informed, supported, and confident in their care. No question or concern is too small, and when he does not have an immediate answer, he makes every reasonable effort to find one.

Above all, Dr. McElroy values each patient as an individual, recognizing that their lives, priorities, and interests extend far beyond their medical diagnoses. He is dedicated to providing compassionate care that not only treats illness but also empowers patients with the knowledge and tools to thrive.

Outside of medicine, Dr. McElroy enjoys hiking, fishing, camping, mountain biking, off-roading, traveling, movies, music, gaming, and time with his family.
