After more than 50 years of providing medical care to the families of South Memphis as well as being a part of this community, it is with fond memories and some regret that we would like to inform our patients and the community that Dr Rentrop retired in January of 2007. Our medical practice will continue to bare his name in honor of his life time of service to the South Memphis Community. We follow in his example of a life time of dedication to and caring for his patients.
