Dr. Meshulam is a wise & kind man with exceptional skill as a gastroenterologist. He diagnosed me & did surgery when no one else could figure out what was wrong. He saved my life.

Dr Meshulum is very knowledgeable. The colonoscopy procedure with him and the nursing staff was less stressful than I anticipated.

Dr Meshulam dismissed me from his practice after 15 years with no explanation at all. He also denied me access to his partner's practice, and the only other GI doctor in town is not accepting new patients. This denial of services is forcing me and my family to relocate 200+ miles to a larger city so that I have a Provider, needed for my chronic GI condition.

His office never returns phone calls, they barely look at you, and if he doesn't have the answer, he's unwilling to help you find it.
