The team at Michigan orthopedic Center is nothing less than a well oiled machine. You hardly get sat down and you've got the next station to go to as for Dr Mesko. One word will do legendary.

J.W. is the GREATEST. He performed a hip resurfacing for me in 2010, which was hurt due to favoring of the right knee ruined on a trampoline in 1995. It was supposed to last about 10 years, and xrays showed it to still be perfect! Dr. Mesko recommended replacement of the right knee to correct ALL. The hip is great, and the new knee is fantastic. Experienced my first short period of "pain free" right knee subsequent to the surgery! Wow! New life. Can't wait for full recovery and pain free existence. Respect and admiration is all I have for this physician. He could be anywhere in the country, but chooses to stay here with his people. Thank God, and Dr. Mesko. Love the guy. Most efficient organization, and BEST surgeon in the midwest or beyond. Love the guy!
