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.

Dr. Mark Meier Is Not Recommended
I definitely do not recommend Dr. Mark Meier. He made a major mistake with my knee surgery. He put the wrong size replacement in my knee joint. I had chronic and intense pain for 3 years because he did not make any effort to figure out the problem he caused or to take responsibility for it. He made my knee worse than it was originally. I went out of state to one of the top orthopedic surgeons in the country to get my knee fixed, and the surgeon confirmed that Dr. Meier used the wrong size replacement on me. I do not recommend Dr. Mark Meier because he lacks skill and integrity which are crucial in medicine. Only go to the best of the best.

Dr Meier id fantastic. His staff and PA are as well. His bedside manner is welcoming and comfortable. He answers one's questions in detail and welcomes all questions comfortably. He worked with my knee for many years, till I needed a replacement. The surgery went well and so too the recovery. I am sad that he is now retired.

I will finally have my surgery next week since it has been delayed for COVID-19 but have been impressed with Dr. Meier's informative appointments at this point. I am confident all will go well.

Brief. It was mostly with Amos this time. But Dr. Meier gets an A+ from me for his past surgery on my hip.

Dr Meier has treated me since 1995 and always intently listens to me and then approaches my condition with an honest recommendation. He gives me the opportunity to make the final treatment. Always his treatments have been successful. I am relying on this same results this time.

I used to work as an RN on Dr. Meier's unit where his patients recovered from surgery. His exceptionally good outcome of surgeries is well known by patients, nurses and doctors in our region. My husband had 2 very successful knee replacements and is riding his bicycle again and has been skiing since . I have chosen Dr. Meier to perform my knee replacement this month and I highly recommend him to anyone who contemplates orthopedic surgery.

Dr. Meier replaced both my hips several years ago and was absolutely wonderful during both experiences. Completely unrelated to those surgeries, recently I became ill with a staph infection in my pelvis that required hospitalization. After hospitalization I became concerned with my recovery even though I was under a doctor's office care. I called Dr. Meier and was seen immediately. He managed to assess the seriousness of the situation instantaneously and called the treating physician and consulted with another physician. Without his intervention my concerns were not being heard. Dr. Meier listens and cares!

Fantastic visit! Full review of my problem. Saw me the day I called with my pain problem. Steroid knee injection with immediate relief of my disabling pain, quickly getting back to my usual physicial activities now. He has been my hero for years and has only risen further in my esteem with this last visit. Have already referred a friend to him. An extremely experienced and circumspect physician!

I waited about an hour for a cortisone injection. Then when the Dr. came in he didn't talk to me about my knee pain, or if he did I didn't hear what he was saying as he was talking as he was going about his prep. I kept saying I can't hear you, as I'm hard of hearing, but he didn't come over to me for any clarification. So I got the injection & he left. Very clinical. His nurse was available & personable, though.
