Dr. Thomas Jan Meeks, DO

Dr. Meeks performed a breast reduction and lift on me. Post op I had a very small opening in my incision, which became slightly bigger. I sent him photos, he didn't care about it. Perhaps he sees this often, but it's unnerving when it's happening in your own body. As time went on, my breasts became a sort of square shape, with the left one showing a significant dent in the underside. I mean, he was successful in the literal reduction aspect of this surgery. They are, in fact, smaller. But now they're ugly. They weren't ugly before. They were just heavy. The areolae don't match now, and they're weird-shaped. When I voiced my concerns during an appt with my shirt off, he shrugged and said "I've seen much worse". I'm now saving money to look into an out-of-pocket revision to cover up his eyesore work.

There are multiple things to express here but first and foremost I feel violated, dehumanized and treated horribly including by Mr Meeks who personally told me to smile as he photographed my breasts as it "increases odds of insurance improval". I was there due to a small benign mass and under extreme stress and was treated like my health was worth nothing. I will be filing complaints wherever possible to document my experience and would advise to stay away from this practice.

I saw Dr. Meeks for a breast reduction consultation. He was very informative regarding the procedure and what to expect in regards to the insurance. He answered all of my questions. I am less nervous than I would have expected and hope to get approval soon.

Dr. Meeks and his staff are a caring group. They handled my anxiety with ease and humor. I highly recommend him for breast reduction surgery.

Had a surgery I had been dreading! Dr. Meek's staff made me feel so comfortable! Dr. Meek's did the surgery with such skill I had very little recovery time! That was a year ago, never felt better in my life, thanks to this team!

You will not find a better doctor than Dr. Meeks. He was there for me on a moments notice, I cannot give a higher praise . He stayed with me throughout my entire reconstruction. I trust and can count on him.

Great all around! Had 10 surgeries in 2 years due to problem healing, thanks to radiation 5 years prior. So it was a real journey with Dr. Meeks but I never felt alone in it. He had my hand and guided me through it all the way, even when I just wanted to curl up under the cover and sleep. Lol

My recent breast reduction went so well. Dr. Meeks is a extremely skilled surgeon and all of his staff is were wonderful. I am so happy and pleased with my results. It is such a blessing and relief to have the surgery behind me. Going forward with confidence!

I had breast reduction surgery with tummy and Liposuction it was with grat care and best ever results I would go no where else

I am so sorry I didn't find this page earlier. I don't know how to get a hold of you all that I've had bad experiences. I had breast reconstruction surgery that begin in 2011 and ended in 2013 with the removal of my implants. I wish I would have seen this site sooner and posted my experience so that maybe some of you wouldn't have gone through what I did. Again, I am so sorry I didn't do this sooner. I am horribly scarred for life, have limited mobility, and I am in constant pain. I wish I could somehow contact all of you who had like experiences. I will try somehow. Please get more than just the one opinion of a very arrogant Dr.

If you are facing breast reconstruction after radiation, I would highly recommend you contact a doctor in Seattle who is familiar with possible issues. I would definitely not recommend Dr. Meeks. I was not satisfied after my surgery and he said "you are certainly being fussy." Don't I have the right to be?

Dr Meeks is a compassionate physician. He made every effort to ensure I had a clear understanding of the procedure I was seeking. He explained in person then sent material home with me so that I could take my time to make an informed decision. By the time I had the surgery, I felt confident I was doing the right thing for me and absolutely knew what risks were. His follow up after the surgery was equally thorough. The staff at his office were professional and competent .

He's a genuine doctor, that put his patients first.

Dr Meeks makes no accommodation for individuals with service dogs. While Dr. Meeks's child has a service dog he has no compassion for others that use service dogs. He forced one individual to have their service dog picked up using outdated instructions supplied by Harrison Hospital a Franciscan Health Group participant, before he would see the patent. He proceeded to lecture the individual on how he presents his child's service dog.

This so called Doctor is horrible. We had surgery and his non-caring attitude forced another doctor to order emergency surgery and remove a tremendous amount of infection. Thankfully another doctor stood up and fixed this doctors mistakes which could have ultimately lead to death.

Dr Meeks is a good surgeon but does not like a lot of questions and isn't very patient. He will start rushing or refer you to the nurse if you ask to many questions. He also can become rude if you inquire about cost with him at all. I

Dr Meeks did a fabulous job on my surgery. I would recommend him highly for anyone seeking breast reconstruction surgery following a mastecomy
