Carolina Ear & Hearing Clinic

Went to see a Dr Pillsbury at UNC and he was not very bright so I went to see Dr McEveen and he was wonderful!!

Could not recommend this Dr. enough. Dr. McElveen gave me my hearing back not in one but both my ears. I would never be able to thank this man enough. He was able to correct my problems when another doctor could not. He's a skillful surgeon and I'm thankful he is my doctor. His office staff is wonderful and courteous.

After losing my hearing in a car accident, Dr McElveen managed to rebuild the bone in my left ear, and put in a metal prosthesis in the right. I now have 0% hearing loss in both ears! The first doctor I had seen told me they couldn’t fix it, so Dr McElveen was a miracle.

Dr. McElveen is an incredibly talented surgeon who gave me my hearing back after I had been told it was impossible. I would absolutely send anyone to him in the future.

Yes! I had a Cholesteatoma that needed repair. The staff was wonderful to work with and Dr McElveen assessed, diagnosed, presented a plan in one visit. I decided on surgery at Greenville Hospital, which was an efficient and pleasant experience (as much as it could be during a pandemic). Surgery went well and the whole situation was remedied. Would definitely recommend this office to anyone .

Dr. McElveen was a complete answer to prayer. I can honestly say he changed my life for the better. I was diagnosed with otosclerosis a few years ago and struggled to hear, even with a hearing aid. When I moved to NC in 2020, I heard about Dr. McElveen, but was still skeptical about having a stapedotomy surgery. After my first visit with him I was completely put at ease that he was the right man for the job, and he performed a miracle on me when he did the stapedotomy on my right ear a few weeks later. Now my hearing in the surgical ear is better than it was when I was using a hearing aid. I’m so glad I didn’t wait to get the surgery done and it has improved my life immensely. He was a wonderful doctor throughout the entire process and I cannot wait to go back to get surgery on the other ear. The office staff was also very nice and his nurse practitioner was amazing.

I was having trouble hearing, and my ear doctor in my hometown recommended that I see Dr. McElveen in Raleigh, which is a 3 hour, one way, commute. I arranged to see him, and he and his staff were the most professional team around! Not only did he repair my eardrum, but also my confidence in him...he’s a well-educated physician! Thanks to him, I’m hearing at a normal level!

I would most definitely recommend Dr. McElveen to my family and friends. I went to him for a hearing loss. He gave over 100 percent to his treatment of my right ear. He worked so hard to do everything he could to restore my hearing that I felt like I could be a member of his immediate family. In my lifetime of 78 years, I have never had a doctor work any harder. I can understand why he is a leading doctor nationally and worldwide. He cares!

I have been treated at the clinic for over 10 years, including for stapes surgery, hearing aids, and the monitoring of my audiological health. I travel 100 miles for these visits. Dr. Richards is my audiologist. She is friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and professional. She performs my hearing tests and ensures my hearing aids are working at their optimum level. She is available by email and remotely for hearing aid support. The treatment I have received from Dr. Richards and the other professionals at the clinic has greatly improved my quality of life. I would trust no other clinic with my hearing needs.

I have been treated at the clinic for over 10 years, including for stapes surgery, hearing aids, and the monitoring of my audiological health. I travel 100 miles for these visits. I was referred to Dr. McElveen by multiple ENT physicians. He is a gifted physician who is highly respected in his field. I have always found him to be professional and personable. His reputation is well deserved. The treatment I have received from Dr. McElveen and his clinic has greatly improved my quality of life. I would trust no other physician with my hearing needs.

I highly recommend Dr. McElveen to anyone. I have had three ear surgeries in the past and Dr. McElveen was by far the best experience I have every had. He and his staff went above and beyond to answer questions and treat me with dignity and respect. My surgery was a success without any pain discomfort or complications. I would give him a 100 stars if I could

Replaced my stapes. We don’t have a dr. Here who can do this procedure. He comes from Raleigh to Greenville SC to perform it. My hearing is completely restored. Great dr. Totally explained everything

Ear surgery July 2020 hearing loss 70% after surgery 0% hearing loss. So thankful for such a skilled and professional doctor as Dr McElveen and his great team. Highly recommend Dr McElveen

I have got to give an update. I am so excited I want to shout it from the roof tops! I was sitting here at my computer in the study and heard the clock ticking in the kitchen. I said, I have never heard that clock tick before. My right ear is facing the kitchen and I thought, am I hearing that with my right ear? I picked up the phone and I can hear a faint dial tone with my right ear which was operated on October 1st by Dr. John McElveen. It is still packed solid from the operation! I have been deaf 20 years in that ear due to a huge hole. I just can't thank him, his staff, and the Lord enough! I can't wait until the packing comes out! Dr. McElveen, you are the best! There is not enough stars to give you! But, one day, the Lord will reward you plenty!

Yes, I would definitely recommend!!! I’ve recently had a stapendectomy by Dr. McElveen. He and his team are amazing! He is a direct communicator, so not lots of warm fuzzies if that’s what you are used to, but he is GOOD! Everyone was so patient as I ask so many questions and took a while to make the decision to actually have the surgery. Wish I had done it a year ago! And the best news, my hearing has been completely restored! Thanks to the entire office for what you do!

Dr. McElveen just did a stapendectomy on my right ear. It has been three weeks and nothing short of amazing. I can already hear so much better and I am so excited. With 55% hearing loss, I can finally hear normally. I can’t wait to get my left ear done in December! Thank you, Dr. McElveen!

Absolutely the best physician I have ever met. Patient first. Straight shooter. Uses medicine and experience to get to the correct root cause of the issue.

Dr. John McElveen, Jr., MD is superior in his field and I chose him for my tympanoplasty - reconstruction of the eardrum - because of his vast experience and success rates over most other surgeons. I have had hearing loss 90 % of my life and then later in adult life, dizzy spells and vertigo entered the picture. One doctor erroneously diagnosed Meniere's disease. Thank God for second opinions and Dr. McElveen. I'm blessed to have my hearing restored completely; and learning and social interactions have soared. Thank you immensely Dr. McElveen and Angela Posidente for your surpassing efforts.

Dr. McElveen rescued me from neurologists who thought I needed to see a psychiatrist due to vertigo, headaches, and Meniere's symptoms. He diagnosed me with Vestibular Migraines with Meniere's symptoms. I cannot put into words how phenomenal Dr. McElveen is! He is truly a gift from God!

There is not enough stars to give Dr. McElveen Jr. enough credit for what he has done for me! In October I was suffering from dizziness, walking with a cane, fluid coming from my nose and ears constantly, and often bouts of Vertigo. I am 71 yrs old and have had this for 20 years. Living in Simpsonville, SC, I was referred to Dr. McElveen by Dr. Patrick McClear I have been seeing for 15 years, he also had done one of my now 5 surgeries. I have a rare decease called Pseudo Tumor Cerebri with a results of making too much spinal fluid therefore it comes out of my ears and nose. On October 31, 2019 Dr. McElveen performed my surgery and was able to find 3 holes in my scull and repair them. I am free of all the things I wrote about above. Dr. McElveen came to Greenville, SC to do the surgery, explained in detail before and after to me & my husband the procedure. Took pictures of the holes in my scull and gave us copies. He is capable of handling extensive surgeries.
