Dr. Meyers has been a member of the American Academy of Pediatrics for more than 20 years and has served as the Idaho chapter treasurer and champion for early detection of hearing impairment. He also serves on the NICU Family Advisory Committee which relies on former NICU families to help inform and guide the neonatology team on important aspects of family care and support during NICU stays. Dr. Meyers has also served as chair of St. Luke’s Children’s department of pediatrics.

Outside of work, Dr. Meyers enjoys the Idaho outdoors with his wife, hunting, fishing, backpacking, cross-country skiing and peak climbing. He also enjoys time with his two daughters, both of whom are following in his footsteps by entering the medical field.
