Sherri Herrell says
Dr. Cleaver delivered my 2nd, 3rd, and 4th babies, (by natural childbirth) in the BABE unit at Baptist in the early 80’s. He also diagnosed my 2nd child with septic arthritis at 10.5 months, which was treated effectively, and my son went on to be a stand out baseball pitcher. He was such a good doctor, and perfect for me as I’d experienced too much medical interference during my 1st childbirth. I owe my children’s lives, health, and my well-being to him. He is missed.
