Patient reviewed on January 2024Dr. Messina is everything a doctor should be. ***

Patient reviewed on January 2024Dr. Messina is an excellent orthopedic surgeon. He replaced my left knee in January of 2023 and my right knee in October 2023. I had no problems, and you can't even see the incisions. I would highly recommend Dr. Messina. In fact, he has done surgeries on a few of my friends. They all feel the same way as I do. He is easy to speak with and explains everything in detail. His staff is great. Also, if you chose to go there for physical therapy, they are excellent. ***

Patient reviewed on January 2024Dr Messina is outstanding. He cares, explains procedures and what choices I have to make repairs. I'm the OR he sees you before gives chance to answer questions and discusses my wishes and why they may or may not work. Post op he communicated how procedure went and any special instructions. He has done 4 rotator repairs for myself. Shoulder and knee replacement for husband all with no few side effects. He is one of the best doctors I have ever used for anything medical. I would recommend him to anyone. He listens and for me I've had doctors talk over you and disregard my concerns. Dr Messina is easy to talk with and he has an outstanding staff. ***
