"Dr Mealer performed surgery on my right knee and he did rotator surgery on my wife's ( Anita) right shoulder and left knee. Compared to a prior surgery on my wife from another surgeon this was world class in every way. The surgeries on both our knees were also done with skill and post surgery there were no problems; even minor ones. You can also tell by the feel of the office and the staff how well an office is run and again this gets 5 stars."

"Deciding on a surgeon can be one of the scariest things a professional athlete does. As a beach volleyball player I know that my shoulder is my livelihood. Choosing Dr. Thomas as my orthopedic surgeon was one of the best decisions I'd ever made.  I'd been competing in pain for a year before I finally got help. Dr. Thomas, a truly gifted physician, put my shoulder back together piece by piece. I can honestly say that my arm now feels 100%. Since my operation I've won 9 international medals and have been ranked as high as 5th in the world. I'll never be able to thank Dr. T enough for his dedication and comprehensive care. Thanks for sending me back to my office in the sand..."

Dr. Thomas gave me excellent care and advice. As an athlete, I want to know my options.  He evaluated my knee and told me my options. I opted for surgery in the off season because I was tired of the chronic pain. The next volleyball season, I was back to winning on tour without pain this time.

Being a patient at Beach City Orthopedics has made a bad accident/injury into a very pleasant experience. Personally, I was at complete ease knowing that I had very highly skilled surgeons who are always at the “top of their game”. Not only are the Doctors professionals but the courteous and proactive staff members are there to assist with all your needs which was an absolute blessing that truly is PRICELESS. B.C.O. is not just an office but more of a fully capable Orthopedic facility containing all aspects needed from the beginning to the end of your traumatic experience.

"Dr. Thomas took care of me when I had an ankle injury. He is personable, caring and thorough, all while understanding an athlete's need to get back on the court as quickly and safely as possible.  I know I am in "good hands" with Dr. Thomas."

I have been involved in athletics my entire life, and unfortunately I have experienced injury while playing the sport I love, volleyball. Although I was discouraged and scared to undergo a meniscus repair, Dr. T reassured me, and I was confident in his knowledge and skills as an orthoscopic surgeon. Doctor Thomas and his staff (especially David!) are very caring. I strongly recommend Dr. T to everyone!

" I feel very fortunate to have found Dr. Thomas. I had shoulder surgery in October 2009 to repair multiple tears from playing fast-pitch baseball.  During the surgery, Dr. Thomas was not only able to fix the tears but also cleaned out some bone spurs. Fast forward less than 15 months from the date of the surgery and I am already pitching an average of 8 innings per game.  The shoulder has never felt so strong. Dr. Thomas, Chris Ingstad and the phsyical therapy team were fantastic and I have never hesitated to refer them to others. "
