Dr. Meelker was fantastic. They were very attentive to my questions and they spent a lot of time with me in the appointment. It wasn’t like previous doctors where they seem like they are rushing to get out of there. So I really appreciate their care and attentiveness. I would definitely recommend them and feel good having them as my PCP.

She is the best. It’s doctors like Lex, Shelly, Schmidt, Catherine Hention, Michael Bodly, Dr. Connci, and all the hard-working nurses at all of your facilities. I’ve had major surgery at Corewell Butterworth. Every time the nurses stepped up and did a fantastic job. Their angels.
