I have trigger finger in both hands for a long time and after repeated steroid shots was advised i needed surgery. I had surgery in September but my surgeon went to a different plan so when i needed follow-up when the finger was in constant pain i needed to find a new physician. My plan referred Dr. Meals and I became anxious after learning his age. I thought i needed another surgery. Dr. Meals examined my finger and explained what was happening and why. He told me the surgery was fine but taking longer than typical to heal ... read more
He destroyed my right hand by allowing students to cut the nerve Iinmy hand and sweared at me when I told him to STOP THE SURGERY. I was handicapped for THREE YEARS before finding another doctor to repair the damage he caused. AVOID THIS DOCTOR. UCLA should be Ashamed to have kept him for so long.
Please avoid Dr Meals at all costs. I broke my finger on July 4, 2022 and was told I would need surgery so I scheduled my appointment with Dr Meals for the following week. Dr Meals never took any new x-rays, instead, he relied on x-rays that were taken the day of the accident at another hospital. Had Dr Meals done his job and just taken new x-rays, he would have saw that the bone was improperly placed and I would not have a malunion nor would I be in constant pain.
Dr Meals performed surgery on my wrist in 2005. My diagnosis was Avascular Necrosis. Before the surgery, I was in constant pain and unable to use my right hand. Thank goodness for Dr Meals! I haven't had pain in my wrist every since he did the surgery. Wonderful doctor.
Surgery with this pioneer of thumb surgury was well over a decade ago and, at 70, I'm still pain free, have a good grip, and full normal use of both thumbs.
Dr. Meals is a fabulous surgeon. He operated on five of my fingers. I had bone spurs. The operations were painless and healed beautifully, No one can even see the scars, I would recommend Dr. Meals to anyone. He is a highly respected doctor and professor. Look into his background.
I had trigger finger and I had cortizone shot and my finger was ok for 8 months , and now I can't move my finger again . I am Trying Acupuncture and I think will work ! After asteroid shot my tendon is more thin! I don't recommend anybody to take this shot !
Worked for me! i couldn’t move my finger for 1 months i had trigger thumb because my work. I am doing Eyelash Extensions for 10 years!!! Dr Meals gave me cortisone shot, and in 1 week my finger start to move! Now, I am doing acupuncture and my acupuncturist said use hot for tendonites never cold . Dr Meals was right!
I came to see this doctor after being cared for at Scripps- waited close to an hour for him - took my water proof cast off to show him my left hand and pinky - said looks good- never took new xrays - said all was good-turns out it wasn't healing and scar tissue later -now needs surgery -when he saw the hand it was two times the normal size & pinky tendon screwed up from the fall-THANKS -THE WORST DOCTOR-
