    Being a parent is hard enough and finding a pediatrician that you trust for your child is so important! We are so grateful for Dr. Lynch-Ljubi! She has been with our daughter since she came home from the hospital and almost 3 years later, there is no one else I could see taking care of her! She’s always there to answer our questions, knowledgeable, so patient and kind with our daughter, and never makes you feel like you’re just another person on her schedule!

  • Three young children sitting closely together, smiling and laughing outside on a porch. One has her arm around the others, and they appear joyful and playful.

    Dr. Lynch Ljubi is amazing- truly one in a million. She really takes the time to listen and give a thorough exam. Her compassion makes us feel important, and I am so grateful to have her as our pediatrician. There is no one I trust more to care for my children.

    - Mrs. C, mother of 3 children

  • Two young children, a boy and a girl, sitting on a wooden floor. The girl has dark hair and is smiling, while the boy has curly hair and is slightly looking away. The girl is holding the boy from behind.

    I can’t say enough great things about Zest Pediatrics and Dr. Meghan. I only wish that we found this practice sooner. As a mom of two young children - with one in daycare - it has been a blessing to have the ability to contact Dr. Meghan directly when new symptoms arise. She checks in and follows up frequently to monitor illness. Dr. Meghan even stopped by my house to check for ear infections during prolonged respiratory illnesses. There is no doubt I avoided Urgent Care visits and lots of stress with how accessible, reliable, and caring Dr. Meghan is. Beyond sick visits, my children see Dr. Meghan for well checks. Her flexibility allows us to find a great times for those appointments. During those visits, she observes my kids during play, drawing pictures, performing motor movements, etc. all while asking some personal, non-judgmental questions about their development - like sleep and eating habits. It’s clear how much Dr. Meghan cares for her patients. She strives to know her patients on a deeper level, and I couldn’t appreciate that more as a parent.

  • Child in orange shirt and black pants jumping on an open road in a desert landscape with hills and blue sky.

    We couldn’t be happier with Zest and Dr. Meghan Lynch-Ljubi. We were struggling to get our kids seen by a pediatrician for a same day sick visit and always ending up at urgent care. It has relieved so much stress being able to text. Dr. Meghan and have immediate contact to get our kids taken care of.

    I can't say enough good things about Zest Pediatrics and Dr. Meghan Lynch Ljubi. This model of care is an excellent addition to our traditional healthcare insurance. Unlimited access and a relationship with your pediatrician is what traditional healthcare lacks. No more nurse line calls, sick visits with random pediatricians in the practice, or playing phone/email tag with our pediatrician. My daughter (she's 17) can contact Dr. Lynch-Ljubi anytime, as can I. I love that my daughter can start taking over her own healthcare with Dr. Lynch-Ljubi as she transitions into adulthood. I wish Zest had been around when my children were born. I would have gladly paid a low monthly fee to be able to have in-home newborn visits and unlimited access to my pediatrician to answer all my questions as a new mom. No matter what the age of your children, Zest Pediatrics is a must-have! As a doula & newborn care agency owner (Nurtured Foundation) I also recommend Zest Pediatrics to all our clients as they have access to their pediatrician 24/7, have in-home newborn visits for the first 3-4 months and offer peace of mind to new parents!

    If you are looking for a pediatrician for your child or children, I would HIGHLY recommend Zest Pediatrics. As first time parents, we didn't know where to begin in the search for a pediatrician. Dr. Meghan Lynch Ljubi of Zest Pediatrics was recommended to us by our lactation consultant. Being a concierge-style office, we really liked the appeal of house visits for the first 4 months of our son's life, as well as access to our doctor via text/call 24/7. We met with her before our son was born and have had nothing but an incredible experience. She checked in several times before he was born and came to our house and met with us for over an hour to answer any questions we had and to go over what to expect with a newborn as first time parents. Our son is 3 weeks old now and she has been to our house 4 times already for house call visits. He was having issues with reflux and was in a lot of discomfort and wasn't sleeping. She worked with our lactation consultant to get to the root of the problem, while checking in with us daily via text until things improved. We know that if we were at any other office, we would not have been given the same amount of time, care, and attention due to the quick appointments and very limited access to discuss issues with a doctor who knows our child well. Our son would likely still be struggling. The care we have received thus far with Zest and Dr. Meghan has exceeded our expectations. We are so happy we found Dr. Meghan and truly can't recommend Zest enough!

    Zest Pediatrics is exactly what every parent needs! Dr. Meghan Lynch-Ljubi is the most empathetic provider I have ever encountered. I joined Zest with my 4 year old in January 2023 and he absolutely loves going to the doctor! Dr. Meghan is so kind and informative and she truly listens. Having this type of concierge style healthcare is incredible! When there is an issue with my son, I can text Dr. Meghan and get a response from her - not calling a dr office, being put on hold, leaving a message, waiting for a call back from a nurse who doesn't know my child's history and then hoping they can help me. There is a comfort I cannot even explain in having your dr so available to you. I also don't have to worry about how much it's going to cost since it's a flat, monthly fee. I don't second guess taking my son in because it could cost a lot. Never having to consider cost vs health is how it should be and Zest Pediatrics is working on making that reality. I recommend them to anyone who will listen and especially new parents like me who need that peace of mind to reach out and not feel "silly" for asking questions. At the end of the day, we all want to do the best for our kids and Zest Pediatrics is the BEST!

    Lisa, mother of a 4 year old

  • Three young girls sitting close together outdoors, smiling and laughing, with arms around each other, in casual clothing.

    As a mother with no “village”, Zest is so invaluable that it has truly been life changing. The feeling of comfort that comes with our pediatrician being available by text any time- whether it be for appointments or even just verbal reassurance- is irreplaceable. Zest gave me more confidence as a parent because a doctor that genuinely knows and cares about my children is now with us every step of the way. I can’t imagine going back to a traditional healthcare practice, because direct care is how I see the standard now. I am endlessly grateful for Dr. Lynch Ljubi; her kindness, her knowledge, her compassion, her patience, and her empathy. I couldn’t dream up a more perfect pediatrician, or a better office for my kids to receive the best care at!

    Casey, mom of 3

  • A woman holding a young girl with medical equipment smiles while sitting on an examination table. Another woman, possibly a healthcare professional, is laughing and leaning forward holding a flashlight. Two other children are present, one sitting on the table and the other standing beside it, all engaged in a joyful moment.

    Grateful for Zest / Dr. Lynch Ljubi! It’s so reassuring and helpful to text with her directly when I have any concerns about my kids health. She always responds quickly and thoroughly with practical advice (and follows up!). Even for a weekend middle of the night emergency, she immediately answered my call personally (no answering service!) and saved us a trip to the ER. She really takes her time with appointments and spaces her schedule so we’ve never waited - we are greeted by her when we walk in. Instead of questionnaires at checkups, she observes my kids playing, coloring etc. Plus her office is so pleasant, doesn’t feel like being at a doctor’s office. My kids didn’t want to leave the last visit, they love playing there. This is all such a refreshing change from the traditional pediatrician model that I was used to. Overall, Zest makes me more confident in my kid’s care knowing that they always see the same doctor who knows their medical history well and that I can easily follow-up with after appointments.
