What Our Patients Are Saying

Sergio Garcia Belmonte

We had an excellent experience with Dr. Merianos. Our son required emergency surgery for appendicitis, and Dr. Merianos was kind and thorough with his explanations of what the surgery entailed and what we should expect immediately following and for the initial post-surgery days. From our son (9): “Dr. Merianos will tell the patient what he is doing before he does it, so the patient knows exactly what is going to happen.”

My 14 month old had emergency surgery with Dr. Chiweshe. She fixed my son. He had malrotation (though not classic) and required Ladd’s procedure. Rather than overwhelm this review with my words, I’ll just say the following: Dr. Chiweshe has ethereal-like energy and soothing confidence; laser sharp and concise explanations; expert discretion which I’m sure is based on deep experience; and the type of bedside manner that allows you better sleep and overall security. Personnel throughout the hospital told me they would want Dr. Chiweshe operating on their child.

Dr. Demetri J. Merianos, M.D. very good doctor, quickly finds a common language with the child! He does a great job of circumcision! I recommend it!
