He takes the time to discuss your situation and knows your history as well as you do. He is proactive in getting the treatment you need to better your life. He will be my doctor as long as he’s practicing!! I highly recommend him and his office staff is just as amazing!!
Professional, provides excellent explanations and is sensitive to patient’s needs and treatment constraints.
He’s the best. Saw 7 doctors who didn’t know my problem. He found it!
He explains things very well.
Dr Miedema listens to my concerns, and clearly explains options and expected results. He seems to really care about making a difference in the lives of his patients.
I am grateful to Dr Miedema for his willingness to listen and learn and help me with my much needed treatment dealing with massive pain issues
Dr. Miedema is attentive and very thoughtful. He listens and explains things all the way through and so you can understand what is wrong and how to alleviate the pain.
The first doctor did ever sat and showed me exactly what was the things wrong with me.
Dr.Miedema took time to explain my test results and where he thinks I am at right now in a way that I could understand. He did not rush, and I feel comfortable reaching out in the future if I need to.
Good dr
