Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

A VERY HAPPY NURSE PATIENT
I used to work with Dr Meis and now am a patient. I cannot say enough good things about him. I had wonderful results from my shoulder surgery and will continue to see him for my orthopedic needs. He is the BEST!!!

Dr. Meis is the BEST!!! Should be rated a 10 !
My sister delayed knee replacement surgery for 10 years. She has a heart condition and was hesitant to have surgery. She had a tremendous amount of arthritis in her knees and I suspect this was one of the most challenging surgeries Dr. Meis has had to perform. The x-rays didn't give a true picture of just how challenging this procedure would be, but when faced with adversity, Dr. Meis and his expertise came through and she had an absolutely tremendous result. Her first knee surgery was in February and just now had her second knee done and both times, everything was highly successful. Dr. Meis is the most-likeable guy...both my sister and I were impressed. No wonder she was referred to him by another patient who sang his praises! He is personable, professional, extremely capable, and has a great bedside manner as he watched over her carefully during her hospitalization. We are both so grateful to have such a fine orthopedic surgeon and CNOS' staff are always great too!

Total Knee Replacement
There are several things that stood out with Dr Ryan Meis. His reviews all have 5 stars. He is very professional and he's very personal. He takes your care very seriously. As if he was your patient. He answered all my question completely and showed care for my procedures he replace both of my knees at different time. He's a very busy man and his quality of work tells me why. I had a critical staph infection a year before my 1st procedure. He knew exactly what needed to be done before replacement. It wouldn't be an ideal experience had I gotten that infection in either knee. As it turns out. , I had gotten a perfect outcome on both knees. I give credit to Dr Meis and his entire staff. And care at the Dunnes. Not everybody is the same or experience the same perfect outcome. With me, he's batting a 1000%. I had virtually no pain. Yes muscle soreness. No Joint pain. The same day of surgery I had 115 deg knee bend. In my opinion Dr Ryan Meis is the best of the BEST

He always takes the time to explain things to me in terms that I can understand. He’s diligent in making sure my health is the best it can be. The entire staff is wonderful.

Dr. Meis is truly an excellent physician in all ways, from his bed side manner to the expertise in his field. I could not be happier with the results of my shoulder surgery. Dr. Meis and his PA Nikki truly made this journey of shoulder surgery (Rotator Cuff) a breeze. Kudos to Dr. Meis and his staff!
