More than 30 years ago, my dad had a terrible fall. Dr. Messineo was the on-call surgeon at Winchester Hospital that day and reassembled him with pins and screws. He raved about her talents, and I second that feeling as a 20-year patient. She's kept me moving, always with a goal of keeping the "original equipment" working until there's no other option. I'd be lost without her.

Dr. Messineo's skill level is incredible. In one appointment she was able to assess, diagnose and formulate a rehabilitation plan. Her care, concern & thoroughness were something that I have not seen in a very long time in the medical profession. I wish that I found her 30 years ago.

I called for my wife. They promised to call back but did not. I called the next day and was told they cannot treat my wife because my wife does not speak English even though I offered to translate. I dont know what to say, I'm shocked.

I have never met a doctor quite like Dr. Messineo. She is by far the best. I would recommend her to anyone who wants an expert in the field. Who is caring and compassion and speaks to you as a friend, not just a doctor. She is very professional in every way possible and gives more than 100 percent to all her patients! She really cares.
