Very personable and honest with news that a patient may not want to hear.
Dr. Mesko gave me options to relieve the pain in my hip and gave me a form to follow-up on how the procedure I chose worked for me.
ANSWERED ALL MY QUESTIONS.
Awesome doctor! So many at my complex were surprised by my recovery time. After 4 months after surgery, I have returned to line dancing! I highly recommend him.
Dr. Mesko was so helpful and knowledgeable. Told me things no other doctor has said about my knee. Made me feel very at ease. He made me feel like I was his most important patient.
R. Mesko was kind & took the time I needed to talk about immediate options & what can be done in the future.
I’m making good progress & knee stitches look better than any I’ve seen with friends. He provided good info plus answered questions I had about hip & shoulder pain. So relieved to hear I don’t need hip replacement!! I would definitely recommend Dr Mesko to friends & family.
Dr Daniel Mesko listened to my complicated history, answering all of my questions with great knowledge. I am happy to refer any and all of my friends and family to Dr Mesko. Thank you to everyone in the office! Your team really helped me out.
