"Dr. Meyer is the ultimate physician. He listens to, and answers every question you have. While some physicians jump at the chance to do surgery, he makes sure all other options are covered first. I have the highest level of confidence in him, and have recommended him to many people. He has done surgery for me, with fantastic results. "

"Dr Meyer is not only an excellent doctor but a kind and compassionate person. He took great care to follow the best course of treatment considering my diagnosis and symptoms. He did not push surgery on me at all but after trying alternatives we determined surgery was the best option. I am doing I incredibly well 6 months post surgery and expect to be back to full strength and normal activity very soon. I highly recommend Dr Meyer. "

"Dr Meyer is wonderful The teams that he works with are wonderful The hospital (Morristown) is wonderful Most importantly, Dr Meyer is personable and is happy to share information with his patients and their care partners. He is generous with his time and knowledge and you don’t feel like just another number to him when you leave. He was originally my “second opinion” but I much preferred his approach to patient caring so I switched and never looked back (no regrets)! Truly a rarity!! "
