Dr. Meyer has been amazing with my 13yo's broken wrist. Really good bedside manner, great with a teenager. Absolutely perfect re-alignment and pin of the fracture. Pins are out and in PT now, the therapist was impressed with how far along in recovery he is. Can't say enough good about the quality of care.
