Dr Mesko did a great job on my new knee. Very very good surgeon!
After waiting 30 minutes to see the Doctor, he only spent about 5 minutes with me and was not open to any other possible causes of my knee pain other than what he diagnosed 3 months ago.
got in next day. took time to explain. very professional
I'm not happy at all! He told me I must not be in enough pain to have hip surgery because I haven't quit smoking! I think God is telling me he is not the right surgeon. He acts like I am the only person that has ever smoked to have major surgery. I'm sick of these new doctors . So if I have to find a surgeon out of state, so be it. This needs to be asked before an appointment is ever made "do you smoke?' Good grief 😔 His dad was a great surgeon and I am willing to bet he has done many hip replacement on smokeers.
He is knowledgeable, caring, personable.
Today was a good day. In and out in half an hour including shot and xrays.
Nice efficient office!!!
Great Dr.
