I have been a patient of Dr. Meshkov’s since 1985, I was 24 years old and in need of heart surgery for a valve replacement. Dr. Meshkov has been there for me in every aspect of my care. He is thorough, patient and genuine in his care and treatment. I never feel rushed during my appointments, he ensures that everything is explained and understood. Even during 2 pregnancies he supported me, called and spoke to the OB team caring for me to coordinate and monitor my cardiac status during pregnancy. I know that I can call him with any questions, concerns or needs. In 2006 I became severely ill and needed heart surgery again to replace my aortic valve, I never would have made it home to my family if it were not for his expertise and commitment to his patients. Forever my family and I will be grateful and thankful for the amazing doctor that he is.
