Dr. Messer and staff were top notch! Beautiful facility. Dr. Messer impressed me most by his patience, and thorough explanation of my hand issues. He made me feel at ease from the very beginning of our meeting. His staff were all professional and friendly. He will be doing surgery on my right hand in the near future, and I am most confident in his surgical skills. It was a very positive experience, and I will certainly recommend him to others in the future.

Doc was easy to talk to and he explained everything clear when I need to have surgery I will go back to Doctor Message

I went to Dr. Messer with a hand problem. He thoroughly examined my hand, explained his findings & diagnosis. He injected my hand with medication & reviewed hand exercises with me. He was not "in a hurry" to leave me for his next patient. I am impressed with Dr. Messer. I highly recommend him.

very professional, and concern about his patients

Dr Messer was professional, courteous, addressed my specific needs as a patient and promptly scheduled bilateral carpal tunnel release surgery for me. I am 6 weeks post-op, and although the 1st week was the most challenging, I am hopeful that I will regain the 100% strength and feeling in both hands. I highly recommend Dr Messer.

Outstanding doctor

Knowledgable and Thorough, seemed a bit rushed but did answer questions I had but kept looking at his watch for the entire time. I guess the office does not schedule enough time for patients to be able to ask enough questions when visiting a specialist compared to primary care physician. I'd like to feel that my doctor's want to be spending time with me as the patient rather than feeling that the doctor really wants to be out of the room.

always extremely excellent care thank you

Very professional

Appreciated how he spent time talking through my concern and addressing the problem.

Loved my visit with Dr. Messer. Very knowledgeable and took the time to go over my condition and treatment

Dr. Messer is a great Dr. and surgeon. He walked me through several months of conservative options before recommending wrist fusion surgery. I'm in the healing process from that surgery now. He explained everything and was happy to answer all my questions prior to surgery. I am thankful for his honesty, expertise and calm demeanor.

I will seek Doctor Messer's care again if ever needed in the future. Everyone was professional and helpful before my surgery and healing process.
