"When I first met Dr. Meilahn I was immediately made aware of his professionalism through his mannerisms and explanations of the procedure. Over time, my impression of him has only gotten better. He is very professional, and very prepared to let you know both sides of this particular surgery. He doesn't sugar coat anything. He's very protective of and concerned about his patients. I loved how he came to the hospital to see me every day and especially how he wanted to be the one to give me my first sip of water following surgery. He wants to be an active participant not only during surgery, but after as well, and that means a lot.
He relies heavily on his wonderful staff. I, having worked with doctors, see this as a great quality. By relying on his staff, that frees him up to do what he was trained to do, and he's a great surgeon. He's very humble about his capabilities, and will be the first to tell you that he's not perfect. But then again, no one is and I felt as though I was in the best care I could be.
He and his team work very well together. Each person has their particular tasks and offers something to the mix, so to speak. They all are competant, professional and great to work with.
I am thrilled about my decision to go with Dr. Meilahn"
"I was apprehensive going to a city hospital and not knowing what to expect. The staff quickly put my mind at ease with their professionalism and friendly nature. Everyone from the people in the lab, admissions office, medical staff, and housecleaning were kind, caring and fun to talk to. I actually enjoyed my stay!"
