Philosophy of Practice:

I try to be educational and informative. I want my patients to understand their problems and their treatment options. I am very conservative in my care. Most hemorrhoidal treatment is performed in the office. Most diagnostic endoscopy is performed in the office. Fortunately, I have the ability to make people feel comfortable and relaxed. Preventative medicine is stressed.

PATIENT REVIEWS

I have had a really good experience. Dr. Meyerson has always been able to solve my problem. I always feel so much better physically and mentally when I leave his office. It’s obvious Dr. Meyerson and his staff really care.
I had suffered from pain related to my anal fissure for years. Dr. Meyerson cured me in one visit.
I have never felt so good down there. I want to kick myself for having procrastinated for so many years. Seeing Dr. Meyerson is one of the best decisions I have ever made.
Painless Proctologist. I am thrilled that I do not need surgery.
The office is run so well. A human being answers when you call. You see Dr. Meyerson and only Dr. Meyerson. I was able to schedule my colonoscopy for next month. I did not have to wait six months or longer.
I love Dr. Meyerson! I had been in pain for years before we met. Other doctors told me to live with my rectal pain, itching, and burning. Dr. Meyerson treated me with rubber band ligation and infrared photocoagulation. The procedures are painless. I felt better after the first visit!
Dr. Meyerson and his staff are the best! I feel amazingly comfortable in his office despite the sensitive nature of my problems. I am treated like family.
Dr. Meyerson helped me tremendously. I had suffered for years from itching, burning, and bleeding. Dr. Meyerson treated me painlessly in the office with rubber band ligation and a laser. My symptoms improved immediately! I am so upset that I waited so long. I feel better than ever!
I have not felt this good in years. I am so thrilled that I did not need to have an operation in the hospital for my hemorrhoids and fissure. Dr. Meyerson is amazing!
My hemorrhoids were bleeding. Dr. Meyerson used a flexible scope to look above the hemorrhoids while I was in his office. He found a polyp that would have turned into colon cancer. I am 36 years old. If I did not have bleeding hemorrhoids, I would probably have died from colon cancer. My gastroenterologist told me to use Preparation H for my hemorrhoids. He told me that I did not need a colonoscopy until I was 50. Thank God Dr. Meyerson is so thorough, and he took the time to look.
