Meredith Walimire
Medical Assistant/Back Office
Meredith Walimire grew up in Moline, IL where her father opened and managed a small family medical practice and that is where she gained her love for the medical field. She worked in his private practice for four years through high school. After graduating high school in 2004, she moved to Fort Myers, Fl with her sister due to their love of Sanibel Island, where they often vacationed growing up. She continued working in the medical field for several years, which is when she met her now husband, Peter Walimire. In 2013 they welcomed their first child, Alexander, and then in 2015 they welcomed their daughter AnnaLynn into the world. During that time she was privileged to focus on the family and home, raising the kids and learning one of her passions, the culinary arts. In October 2022 she and Dr. Walimire chose to open their own medical practice and Meredith graciously returned to work in the office as our medical assistant.
Meredith enjoys traveling with her family and crafting with the kids. She is also an amazing chef and never leaves anyone hungry! Her friendly demeanor and smile brings this practice our many 5 star reviews! She finds working with our patients to overcome their physical limitations and painful conditions one of the most rewarding parts of her life and is thankful that she can help others achieve the outcomes they are looking for when they come to our practice.
