    He is leaving and I was very upset this doctor was the only one that helped my when I was diagnosed. He was my go to doctor so now I am upset because I have to introduce myself and my disease and explain everything to someone else. I also feel that he should have told me not the scheduling nurse.

    Dr Meehan shows more care and concern than most I've seen in the last year. He truly pays attention to my needs. Wish he was my primary but that's a different story.

    Dr Meehan is the best doctor I have. I wish all doctors were like him
  • Aug, 20 2024
    Meehan makes me feel heard, involves me in my own treatment or care, always takes his time, always makes sure I know I can send a message anytime, he puts me at ease and makes me feel safe and like I am getting care for what works for me which is of high importance for me as a patient. I am thankful he is my doctor.

    I have a special place in my heart for Dr. Meehan. He never rushes me, seems to care, answers all my questions, and all that with a smile on his face! I especially like that he takes the time to walk with me out! Again, thank you.

    I am so grateful that I had this appointment, I am trying to get a medical waiver for the coast guard academy and they helped me more in one day than the coast guard has in 3 years

    I like Dr Meehan very much. This was my first visit with him and he took the time to listen to me. He also explained each option of treatment to me and let me decide of what to do next. He made sure I understood exactly what the options were and the potential outcomes of each. He did not "tell" me what to decide but agreed with my decision. I would highly recommend him to anyone I know who needs a "professional" opinion about pulmonary problems. Thank you Dr Meehan!

    This was my second annual visit with Dr Meehan. I was worried when Dr Knodel retired, but Dr Meehan has been an excellent replacement and I have total confidence in him.
  • Apr, 11 2024
    Dr. Meehan is thorough, thoughtful and kind. He makes time to review health care records and tests and explains his interpretation of results. I appreciate his commitment to ensure my concerns are addressed and I part of the treatment/follow up plan.
