John Meilahn

"Dr. Meilahn made an immediate impression upon me when he replied the same evening to an e-mail I sent to him inquiring about surgery. I called for an appointment soon thereafter. At my consultation he went over every detail of what I was to expect, including the possible side effects and complications. He visited me in the prep room just before surgery to go over a few things again and to apologize that he was running late with the first case. He also wanted to know if I had any more questions. After I came out of anesthesia, he immediately let me know that he had to perform an open procedure. On a funny note, he wanted me to walk the day I was going home. The gown they had given me was missing the ties in the back so my butt was hanging out. Dr. Meilahn grabbed a roll of surgical tape and taped me shut. It was hysterical. He called me the day after I went home to make sure everything was OK. Dr. Meilahn is very patient oriented."

Temple University Hospital

"I found all of the staff from the doctors to the parking lot staff to be friendly and helpful. Everyone seems keyed in to the customer service excellence that Temple is striving for."
