Feb 22, 2019
Dr. Mecum is absolutely outstanding connecting with children. He is one of those gentle souls that just puts everyone at ease. He clearly explained everything to my daughter that was about to happen in terms she could understand. It made a huge difference in how calm she was! Highly recommend you seek him out!

Board Certifications
What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
