In mid-2021, at the height of COVID craziness, my doctor, John Schroder, observed a large aortic aneurysm while evaluating my recent CAT scan. He efficiently arranged for all of the necessary pre-op tests and eventual repair of my aorta, even during those times of COVID restrictions. I'm still here and can never find enough words to thank him sufficiently.

My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
I learned a great deal about healthy living and wellness from my grandfather who lived to be 92 years old and was lucky enough to stay in his own home until he passed. One of his old adages was "Keep everything in balance, and live with moderation." I have tried to achieve this in my own life and translate that philosophy to my primary care medical practice. As an internal medicine physician, I value the partnerships I build with my patients. These personal relationships add an element that support my patients throughout the year inside and outside of the exam room.
Personal Discussions
As a private doctor, I am committed to keeping my patients updated on the very latest health information and preventive screenings. Disease prevention and healthy living are promoted through individual discussions regarding the “gray areas” where decision making is not clearly supported by medical literature and data. In these situations, I draw upon my experience serving in a medical leadership position at The Christ Hospital Health Network in Cincinnati, Ohio. The MDVIP Wellness Program helps me proactively concentrate on all areas of health, including heart and bone health, diabetes prevention, stress, nutrition, sleep, fitness and more. Similar to concierge medicine practices, I also offer conveniences like same- or next-day appointments that start on time.
Prompt Communication
My prompt communication demonstrates that I value the uniqueness of each of my patients. I consider myself very fortunate to practice in a personalized healthcare setting where we have time to explore important nuances regarding individual healthcare decisions. Attention to health issues and ease of communication can make a big difference for peace of mind - not only to the patient, but also to their family members.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Schroder
Wife Carol and I were on a long-awaited trip from Cincinnati to the Pacific Coast Highway. After a very bad night in Buffalo, WY, we texted Dr. John Schroder the next morning. When we described her symptoms, he told us to get to the nearest town with a major hospital. By noon she was on the operating table at Sheridan Memorial Hospital. The next day, fortified by some major pain meds, we… See more
When I first joing Dr. SChroder he came to hospital to check on me. That means a lot when in hospital. It gave me some pease on mind.
The reason why, at 76 years old, I can lift weights at the gym, walk for an hour and chase my grandchildren, is because Doctor John Schroder has kept me motivated. Dr. Schroder has given me care and sound advice for probably 20 years now. It was early in my treatment with Doctor Schroder that he encouraged me to read a book, "Younger Next Year," which pretty much guides my outlook… See more
I've been with Dr Schroder for 3+ years. His attention to physicals and discussions of results from lab tests are far more complete than I've ever experienced. When I required hospitalization, he was right-on-the-spot with the needed advice and made hospital visits to see that I was satisfied with any treatments. When I required specialists for particular procedures, his… See more
I am taking better care of myself, my diet has improved and I'm back at the gym thanks to Dr. Schroder's encouragement and suggestions based on my test results.
I love that you see me when I have problems. Knowing that I have someone to turn to is a real comfort. Thanks!
I have been a patient of Doctor John R. Schroder for well over ten years. While physically active with a healthy lifestyle, at 72 my body has seen its glitches and mysteries. With every visit, Doctor Schroder has shown a caring attentiveness while diagnosing my symptoms and recommending successful treatment plans. His attention and caring extend beyond past or current issues. Whether… See more
Thank you John Schroder for the excellent care you give to two 87 year olds. Your responsiveness, patience, thoroughness and caring attitude mean a great deal. Jack and I feel very fortunate to have you as Major General of our personal care.
I have expressed particular preferences for certain medications and dislike for others and he has been careful not to prescribe the ones with which I have difficulty.
In addition he refers to previous conversations and listens to what's happening to me when I am talking to him.
I definitely feel treated a person and not just another patient.
