Dr. Meese just performed the removal and repair of a large bone spur in my elbow. He advised me months ago that I would have to ultimately deal with this. Surgery performed as explained with no complications. Dr. Meese called me at home to ask how i was feeling. P/T performed on site. Staff is great.

Dr. Meese reminds of doctors from years ago where you weren’t rushed and the Doctor cared more about you than the bottom line. He is the only orthopedic I would go to in the county because he is the best!!

Thought I needed a knee replacement, was in so much pain due to torn meniscus, turned out I just needed a cortisone shot & Physical Therapy. Dr. Meese is honest & will not try to talk you into a surgery that you don't need. Physical Therapy is in the same building & also very good.

Dr. Meese is always patient, kind and courteous with his patients. My family has seen Dr. Meese for several different issues from broken bones to surgery for torn ACL and meniscus! His treatment has always been successful. I always recommend him to everyone, he is the best!
