Ordinary go-arounds are no big deal and are neither infrequent nor dangerous. However, the situation described in the base note--the writer claimed that the wheels were actually on the runway--would be unusual if indeed it happened that way. My guess is that the writer may have mistaken the attitude and power shifts (from low power for landing to full-power for a go-around) for contacting the runway.
