Extremely Happy with My Results!!!. I originally heard about Dr. Tjelmeland through a couple of friends who had decided to undergo breast augmentation. Due to their recommendations and outstanding results, I too chose to have the surgery and I couldn't be happier! In the past I had thought that getting an augmentation was something I would never do but now I only wish I would have done it sooner. Going into it, I had feared being too big or looking fake but I ended up getting exactly what I hoped for and wanted!!! Dr. Tjelmeland is definitely experienced along with his whole staff which is evident from the moment you step through the door. I especially liked how time was taken to explain everything to me so that I felt at ease. I was never rushed and they made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I am SO THANKFUL!!!

Top Notch Skin Care and a caring plastic surgeon too. I have been going to Meridian Skin Care for a while now and I have been extremely pleased with my results. I am almost 41 and have received photo facials, skin tyte, laser hair removal, fillers, botox etc. from Dr. Tjelmeland's staff. They have a fantastic aesthetician and Dr. Tjelmeland is ALWAYS willing to give advice when he is needed. I just had to share my great experience with you. Thank you Meridian for taking good care of me!

Fabulous. I have had several profractional procedures the results were great. Everything was explained to me in detail , and I felt very comfortable each time. The staff were all very friendly which helped calm my nerves. They made every step of the way as smooth as possible, and I loved the results so much I've been a patient of his esthetician Stephanie since! She's done microdermabrasions, and photofacials. I have had several compliments which makes it all worth it. I recommend Dr. Tjelmeland, and his staff they are awesome!

Highly Recommend. Every time I go to Meridian I have a great experience. Every one of their staff is so friendly and I am greeted by name and feel so comfortable. I have seen Dr. Tjelmeland for fillers and he made the experience so much better than I thought it would be by taking his time to explain everything to me before we got started. I thought it was going to be so painful but I truly didn't feel much at all and was so pleasently surprised and I love the results. He has such great bedside manner and really calmed my nerves. I have also seen his P.A. Cindy for botox. She is the sweetest girl and does a wonderful job and I was in and out in no time. While I was in the office I noticed they also have a skin care clinic and I had always wanted to do a photofacial for my rosacea so I met with their esthetician, Stefani. I can't believe the results. I could literally see a difference the next day! If you are considering any cosmetic or skin care procedures, this is the place to go!!

Great Dr.. My experience with Dr Tjelmeland was wonderful.

He takes the time to explain the procedure in detail

and is not pushy or overbearing. He made sure all

my questions were answered. I was very comfortable

with him and his staff which is important, because I have

had consultatins with other Dr.'s and I did not get the

same feeling. I did facial surgery and also skin treatments with his esthetician for my age spots and sun damage. I am very pleased with everything and I

definitely recommend him to anyone who is considering

plastic surgery

Excellent Place and Great Staff. I've had surgery at other facilities and this place was by far the best!

I had liposuction with Dr. Tjelmeland almost two years back and I'm still loving the results. The office is beautiful and quiet - it's not so large that you have to circle around twice just to get a parking spot like at other large hospitals.

Dr. Tjelmeland and Cindy were simultaneously sweet and professional, answered all my questions (and those I didn't think to ask); so even though I was still nervous about the upcoming surgery, I didn't feel unprepared.

His surgery staff has excellent bedside manner, my nurse gave me such TLC and made me a lot less nervous. I really liked the fact that they took the time to talk me through my recovery process rather than just focusing on marking off their paperwork and rushing me out the door.

My discharge was also notably different, for one, my nurse stayed with me the whole time and took me out through a private side entrance. The last place I went to, I was left in alone in noisy hallway for a while before finally being taken out the equally noisy front lobby (and I think I scared a little kid).

They made every step of the way as smooth as possible, and I loved the results so much I've been a patient of his esthetician Stephanie since! She's done microdermabrasions, photofacials, and laser hair removal.

I've gotten quite a few compliments on my skin, so I know it's worth it!

I am coming back here the next time I need something done.

amazing dr and staff. Best thing ive ever done in life..

I went to dr tjelmeland for a breast enlargment consultation in April and he was amazing. Him & his staff were very nice and very helpful. I felt like I could any question and it wasnt a dumb question. He was there to help me and showed that he cared. I was very nervous about having this done and he ensured me that everything was going to be okay. Im in the healing process right now. Went for my 1st checkup today and he said everything was looking great just healing and time will let everything settle down. I want to thank dr tjelmeland and his staff again for a wonderful surgery!

BEST thing I ever did....feeling great!. I went through surgery at Meridian for a total body makeover since I have had some kids. They really do some crazy things to a womans body! I had some liposuction to my hard to work out spots. Even though I exercise, the lipo was so great to do and so worth it for those hard to get to areas like inner and outer legs and muffin top. The discomfort was minimal and the recovery was super quick compared to what I thought it would be like. I was back to work in only a short time. The BEST thing I have ever done was a breast reduction and lift. I felt like a totally new woman. I wished I would have done it years ago. I was really happy with the staff and the care was great. They answered ALL my questions, even the ones I thought were stupid. I tell all my friends about this place and I am not afraid to let people know I had surgery because I feel so good. VERY MUCH RECOMMENDED!

Super Happy. I had a breast augmentation with Dr. Tjelmeland a few years ago and have been extremely happy with both the results and the care I received. He is very talented and the staff is very professional.

I recently went back for some skin care services and so far I'm still impressed. The esthetician, Stefanie, put me on a skin care regimen that is easy to follow and doesn't cost too much. She also did some photo-facials to help with the sun damage. My skin looks better than it has in years. I'll continue to use the skin care services there and would definitely return to Dr. Tjelmeland for any future surgery I may need.

Very impressed so far. I chose Dr. Tjelmeland on the referral of a friend who was extremely pleased with his work. She had her first cosmetic surgery with another doctor and told me that after she had work done with Dr. Tjelmeland, she wished she could have had her first procedure with him because the work did healed so much more unnoticably than the other doctor's work. Due to the type of procedure I was wanting, that comment made me choose Dr. Tjelmeland as well.

I had my procedure on 12/22/09 and am still healing. It will be a couple of months longer before I'll have a better idea regarding the quality of Dr. Tjelmeland's work on me, but I can definitely report on the care and service that he and his staff have provided me.

The office is small and easy to get to- no huge parking garage to hunt a spot in, or clinic campus to navigate. It's like a regular doctor's office; you park right by the door and there you are. Your surgery is performed in their on-site surgical center, so you have the same ease in getting there and back home on your surgery day. The staff are so pleasant and professional, and the center itself is a model of cleanliness, order, and pleasant comfort. I was given more thorough pre-operative information for my cosmetic surgery than I was for either of my spinal surgeries a few years back, which doesn't speak too highly of the "regular" medical process, does it? Dr. Tjelmeland and his physician's assistant, Cindy, made sure that I had all the information I would need to be physically and emotionally prepared for my big day. When it arrived, I was cared for by a wonderful, sweet nurse who is accustomed to dealing with the nervousness that many patients feel and knew how to set me at ease. The anesthesiologist assigned to me was wonderful as well; I've had to have surgery a handful of times before and I've never seen that level of kind, easy compassion in an anesthesiologist before. Once my procedure was done and I was waking up, again my nurse was there to help me come out of the disorientation of being under anesthesia, and the pain that one has to expect after surgery. I'm being totally honest when I tell you that the pain wasn't very bad at all- and a good part of that was the preparation the doctor and staff had given me so I would know what to expect. The nurse helped me get dressed, gave me all the information my boyfriend and I needed to care for me at home, and let me take all the time I needed to leave when I felt I was ready. You couldn't ask for better care.

My follow up visits have been on the same level of quality as well. All that remains is more time to see what my results will be. What I can tell so far looks very promising. I'm not nervous at all- my care so far has given me every confidence in Dr. Tjelmeland's work. I'll stop by in a couple of months and give an update.
