Dr. Sridhar Meda graduated from Boston University School of Dental Medicine in 2008. He continued his education and completed an advanced education program in general dentistry at the Jacobi Medical Center in Bronx, NY. During his post-graduate program, he received extensive training in all the sub-specialty areas in the field of dentistry.
To ensure he could provide the most effective and comprehensive solutions to his patients dental issues, he obtained a masters degree in Public Health from the University of Illinois in Springfield. Since then he has been helping those in his community maintain their smiles for the past ten years.
Dr. Meda is a pillar of his community. He serves in the US Army Reserves and is a volunteer at the local Potawatomi zoo, helping animals maintain their oral health. He finds that his profession is rewarding because he can form bonds with those around him, fellow neighbors and others within his area. His philosophy is to treat patients the same way he would care for the members of his family.
Dr. Meda never stops striving for perfection and makes every effort to excel in his profession. This year, as well as every year, he completes over 100 hours of continuing education even though only ten are required. He does this to expand his knowledge of the most effective ways to improve his patients smiles.
Providing the highest level of care for his patients is what Dr. Meda lives by. That is why he stays involved in other areas of dentistry, serving as a secretary for the North Central Dental Society and remaining a local component of the Indiana Dental Association and American Dental Association.
Dr. Metzler began his working career as a 5 year-old helper for his father, the founder of Metzler Plumbing Company, where he learned the importance of solid and beautiful fixtures with no leaks. That mindset continues in his dentistry after many years of education.
At Indiana University in Bloomington, Dr. Metzler enjoyed studying the humanities, with a double major in Religious Studies and German. He attended Hamburg University in the Federal Republic of Germany for one year. After learning that dentists in Germany were sometimes (maybe not to their faces) called tooth plumbers, he decided plumbing had led him to a dental career. After returning home, he attended Indiana University School of Dentistry, graduating in 1982. Throughout the years, he has worked with a variety of patients including children, younger, and older adults.
In his spare time, he enjoys reading, being outdoors as much as possible (gardening, bicycling, fishing, etc.), and spending time with his better half, Wendy, and their friends. With his background Dr. Metzler tries to help patients make excellent and practical dental choices that fit their lives and goals. Then our pleasant office team helps realize those goals in our friendly, high-tech office.

Wow wow wow is all I can say. I have been to many dental offices and have had many issues with my teeth and I have never been more impressed with these two dentists and every single person working there. They are all so very pleasant caring and don't treat you like just another patient to rush through. They truly want to help you and care about your oral health. They are helping me save my teeth which I'll be forever thankful for.

Dr. Meda is absolutely amazing! He genuinely cares about his patients. His assistant today named Anna was also great. You can tell she enjoys what she does. Bridget is always a friendly face that makes you feel more like family than a patient. Dr. Meda and his staff truly go above and beyond for there patients! I love this practice!

I haven't been to the dentist in a couple years and my boyfriend in about 10 years, and the people here are simply AMAZING! Bridgette is the bomb, Francine is fantastic and Dr Meda was funny and informative and got me into an endodontist next day for a tooth I had a botched root canal on 4 years ago. We got a game plan for my boyfriend and they did not make him feel bad once, and I took my daughter in this week as well, got her cleaned and scanned for Invisalign now! We don't have insurance and their smile club has already saved us SO much money! I have had almost all bad dentist encounters over my lifetime, but I cannot begin to express my thankfulness for finding this office and how utterly amazing they are here! I can't give enough stars! If you've had terrible dental experiences, this is the office for you!!!!

I love this place. Everyone is great. My kids love going to the dentist. The staff take the time to talk to them about school and what they are interested in, which allows the kids to relax for the impending dental work ahead. Best place to go for dental work, I highly recommend them

I had a procedure done recently that I have been putting off do to bring nervous of the results. Well when I reached out to Ireland Park Dentistry they brought me in and immediately made me feel comfortable by not pushing to do anything. Gina (the dental assistant) and Dr. Metzler (the dentist) explored options and gave input on each matter. They let me make the decision as to which way I wanted to move forward. When going through with the work, Gina and Dr. Metzler worked extremely well together, knowing what needed to be done and having everything prepped, and ready to enable a smooth procedure. While working on my teeth they made sure I was aware of what was happening at all times, why it was happening, and put my comfort first. I was so impressed with the level of professionalism by the dental team! As well as the whole dental staff and office as a group. I would highly recommend Ireland Park Dentistry to anyone looking for a new dental home!

One of the dentists decided he was going to redo my filling that was not bothering me or showing warning signs because the mirror tooth had some issues with a filling and had to be redone. First tooth turned out fine, second one was causing pain for weeks. Went back and found that it had to be redone AGAIN. It has still been hurting sporadically for months now, but figured it would be ok because i did not want to go back here to get it fixed a third time. Something happened to this filling today when I bit into a hot food and it seemed to pop open and now I'm in pain. They have fairly friendly staff and dentists (except one told my husband his cracked front tooth made him look old , he's 34) I just wouldn't recommend them trusting them with your teeth.

As good of an experience as one can have when getting your teeth pulled. The entire staff has been caring and professional. They have been great about calling to check on how I'm doing through the recovery process.

I have been a patient at Ireland Park for many years. I have been well served there. Recently I had a broken tooth. I was able to see Dr. Meda and he, with Gina were able to immediately prepare me for a temporary crown. They were kind, thoroughly, efficient, and concerned for my wellbeing. I appreciate that the staff listens to my input. They assess my needs, explain and educate me on options, then offer recommendations without any "sales" pressure. My hygienist Francine is thorough and informative. I appreciate her kind and gentle manner. Dr. Meda also is a good listener and efficient worker.
