About
Philosophy of care
I really like to tailor your care to what’s going to be the most beneficial to you and your underlying conditions. I try to spend a lot of time getting to know you on a personal level and your medical history in order to come up with the best treatment plan.
Why I entered medicine
I have always wanted to go into medicine. I’ve always been fascinated by the field, even as a child. And then getting older and during my education, I loved the science of it. In rheumatology, I love the challenge of having to taking care of someone over several years.
Personal interests
I really enjoy reading. I’m a skier and enjoy cooking, when I have time. And I spend a lot of time raising my two boys. My husband and I stay very active with them.

Comments
"Meghan was great. It was good to work with someone knowledgeable and who actually took the time to try to rule out one dx, to understand why and where my pain is coming from."
"Meghan has always been fantastic. I've been with her for almost 10 years. Pretty much my whole family sees her. She was a great help with giving me sample medication when my medication got delayed and got left out in the 100 degree heat we recently had. She has been the best provider I could hope for."
"Meghan Hoffner was very nice & very kn owledgeable."
