Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Judgmental, arrogant and condescending
I only saw this physician for two visits before it was clear to me that he was not the doctor that I wanted to see again. He has a 'my way or the highway' approach and he is 'stone cold' in his personality and patient care. During a recent data breach at Palomar Medical, I had a nightmare experience that took three days to resolve all because this physician was not willing to sign off on a prescription - my own physician was not in the office and I was almost out of some of my meds. If you want great 'bedside manner' - find a different doctor.

I have been seeing Dr. Meyerhoff for over 7 years and continue to be impressed by his thoroughness and care. He diagnosed and successfully treated a condition which was undiagnosed by my previous physician. I especially appreciate that he does not immediately jump to medications if more conservative treatments like physical therapy might be helpful. A very good listener who addresses any questions or concerns the patient might have.

I have seen Dr. Meyerhoff for many years. I am not the best patient, but he is one of the most knowledgeable and experienced doctors I have ever been to. Other doctors have told me that he is the doctor that "they" go to... high praise, indeed. While he will not sit and talk about my hobbies or children, he listens to my medical concerns, and uses his strong medical skills to accurately diagnose my issues. If you want a highly intelligent doctor whom you can confidently count on for proper diagnosis and care, he is an excellent choice. I moved away, but am making the 1.5 hour drive to see him for my care.
