Dr. Meppelink was our pediatrician for 20 years. It makes me sad that my boys no longer need his care as adults. He was always helpful in explaining any issues and answering questions. He even worked late once just to get my son in after hours. We started out with a different pediatrician who just didn't work out. We found a gem in Dr. Meppelink.

I asked front desk nurse Lisa, and then Mary if I could leave a message for Dr. Meppelink to call me when he was available. After checking with office manager and basically getting a runaround, they told me that he would essentially have them return my call. He doesn't speak to patients directly, unless by appt. This is a no brainer for me. With 3 teen daughters and another who just turned 10, I need a doctor, and nurses who are approachable, helpful, and care-concerned, and friendly. Moving on!

Dr. Meppelink is the most FANTASTIC doc ever! I look forward to our well child visits just to hear what new exciting info he has about health! He was the one to tell me I had post pardom depression after my first child. I went to see my doc, and sure enough he was right. He is actually not the original doc I had selected from a previous practice he was with, but when I met him in the hospital after my son was born, I knew I had to switch to him!!! I would recommend him to anyone that is looking for a pediatrician. He was also just approved to see people until they are 26!!!

Love this doctor will bring my children to him as long as I can. My adult child is mad because she can no longer go to him because he is a pediatrician and will not take her because she is an adult. Absolutely love how he talks to the child as well as the parent.
