• Dr. Meade Shares His Knowledge
  Dr Meade has been my favorite physican by far the last seven years, because he is caring, and he listens to his patients. The fact that he is one of the most knowledgeable doctors I have dealt with is very important to a patient. He is constantly educating himself in his field and beyond so he can offer the best quality of life to his patients. Dr Meade shares his wealth of knowledge with the public through his shows and seminars and as a patient I have learned so much from him. I hope that Dr. Meade continues his mission in his field for many years to come and wish him the best. Thank you Dr.Meade for caring.

• 11 Weeks and Doing Well!
  Dear Molly, Dr Meade & RJ,
   

  Thank you all for the care you provided me with my knee surgery. You all are the very best in your field and how fortunate I am to have had your services.

  It’s now 11 weeks since my surgery and I’m doing real well. Although still taking therapy, I’m actually able to walk, do all regular tasks and am no longer thinking of my knee or feeling any funny, different sensations. It’s great to not think of a knee or it’s stiffness and pain every hour or so!

  All of us here in the Lehigh Valley are so very lucky to have you all and your medical services available- you are the very best!

  Thank you again and stay well!
   J.F.

   
• Terrific Video of my Knee Surgery
  Dear Dr. Meade,

   

  I am amazed at the video and terrific story show you made on my knee surgery!

  It’s great!-Thank you! And I can’t believe it’s on You tube!! Interestingly, my daughter, a 2^nd year dental student at Temple was amazed and said she learned from it, especially watching you do stitches! So, I’m certain other medical students and others will also learn much from it!

  I am so fortunate, as others have been, to have been a patient of yours. I appreciate all you’ve done to help my knee scenario. I’ll continue to take 6000 mg of fish oil daily and am thinking about starting CoQ 10 after watching one of your shows- all of which are very interesting.

  My physical activity has picked up since my operation and it’s great to no longer think of my knee on a regular basis!

  I am walking with no pain, although mornings are a little stiffer, but I’m stretching before getting out of bed and it really helps! This getting old is no fun!

  How you do all you do in a day- from operating to enduring long demanding hours, all while keeping such a great spirit and demeanor is simply remarkable! You are helping people immensely!

  Thank you so much,

  Sincerely 

  JAF

• You're the Best
  Dear Dr. Meade,   Words cannot express how happy I am that I selected you to perform my total knee replacement last May.

  My general health was very good, but walking any distance-even a short one- was a major problem

  Let me say without a doubt, you have given me my life back.

  My recovery has been quiet and smooth and I can’t thank you enough!

  Also, my grandchildren and family members thank you.

  You are ‘THE BEST”

  Sincerely—J.M.
• Thank You!
  Thank you Dr. Mead for confirming what thousands of people have found out the hard way: statin drugs are not what we've been led to believe! When my husband first started taking statins 5+ years ago, he had an adverse reaction of very bad muscle aches in his arms. So the doctor switched him to another statin with the same result. He tried 4 statin drugs before ending up on Simvastatin. The aches and pains and fatigue that resulted over the next 4 years crept up so slowly it was hard to pinpoint. He then decided to stop the statin drug and within a few weeks felt 100% better.  In retrospect I wish I had researched statins before my husband started taking them; we all should research the long term drugs being suggested to us.
• Wonderful information about Statins
  Dear Dr Meade,

  Thank you for a wonderfully informative and honest assessment of statins. My late Dad took a slew of medications, and my mother swore that it was the beginning of a downhill slide to the end when he did. I believe her. I am saddened when patients come to me with their list of meds, and then state they don't have any significant past medical history. To some people popping pills isn't even a consideration for them. You have really done a wonderful public service with this editorial, thank you! I shared this on my facebook.
