Dr. Meghan Noel Starner, MD

was treated very poorly and abruptly by her while at a local hospital. She refused to speak with me one day of my stay due to misinformation I was given by the hospital staff about my treatment regimen and the next day during her rounds she began the conversation “I already read your notes from St. Luke’s about past trauma, I don’t care about that and am not here to talk about it.” The information she read was very personal and traumatic for me and for her to answer that way must indicate a lack of empathy for a mental health professional. I work in healthcare as an RN on med surg and would never approach a patient (particularly someone going through mental health issues) that way. Having the privilege to be certified and educated in a professional is one thing but having the skills and ability to articulate that to patients is another.

So incredibly grateful I found Dr. Starner. She is kind, compassionate and knowledgeable regarding the newest meds. She’s made me feel so much better.

Finding a psychiatrist is extremely difficult - let alone finding a good psychiatrist that connects well with your child and your family. My husband and I struggled for over two years to find someone that my daughter could trust and that we could rely on. No matter the circumstances, Dr. Starner has always gone above and beyond to ensure the health and safety of our daughter even when we knew it might be inconvenient. We can't recommend or thank Dr. Starner enough for helping our family thrive again.

My daughter has not recovered from the way she was treated by Dr. Starner, and I am trying to help another family avoid the same pain. She told my daughter she could not treat her any longer in a TEXT, which is the most unprofessional thing I have ever heard, no matter what the reason. My daughter has struggled to find another doctor that's the right fit for a year now and I still cannot believe any psychiatrist would treat someone that way. DO NOT CHOOSE THIS WOMAN FOR YOUR CHILD.

I was apprehensive about having my daughter see a psychiatrist for medicine, but it has made a huge difference in her life and we are so grateful

I have seen two other psychiatrists in the area and finally changed to Dr. Starner. I’m so glad I did! She really listens. I haven’t done this well in a really long time.

My life has changed for the better since seeing Dr. Starner. She has helped me so much! I love her office, its clean and comfortable and I feel like I'm in a spa.

I feel very lucky that Dr. Starner is my doctor. I felt validated and understood after our first meeting, and her treatment plan is really working for me. She's awesome!

This doctor is outstanding. She really listens and works with you. More doctors should be like her.
