Elderize Von-Schilling Worth, BA, CT, CRT CFO and Co-Owner

Elderize Von-Schilling Worth brings a wealth of knowledge and diverse insights to our organization. As a Licensed Durable Medical Equipment Provider, Elderize has been a vital part of the medical field in the United States for over a decade.

Originally from South Africa, Elderize graduated Cum Laude from the University of Wisconsin with a degree in Psychology and a minor in Communications. Her passion for people is evident in her commitment to providing exceptional service. While managing multiple clinic operations and raising her family with her husband, Dr. Kelly Von-Schilling Worth, she also obtained state certifications to excel in every role within their practice.

Elderize embodies the South African "Do it yourself and you know it gets done right" attitude. This philosophy has enabled her to excel in various areas, from patient administration to patient care and radiology. She even established her own DME company to enhance the services provided to their patients.

Currently, Elderize is pursuing her nursing degree and plans to add a doctorate in nursing to her credentials as they expand their practices.
