Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Caring Physician
Dr. Melchor was attentive and listened to my concerns and gave helpful advice. I was pleased with the care he provided for me. There was no waiting during the visit and everyone was very helpful and friendly.

When I went to see Dr. Melchior, listened, sort of. As per the other reviews, he would not look at me. Just looking at the PC. After I left his office, he forgot everything we talked about. The question is, what was he working on during the appointment? Sounds to me, it was not my record. I would not recommend him to anyone. He did look at recent blood work. He went back in past history Rx record and did a cut n paste. This data was outdated and wrong. He messed up current Rx. Took weeks and intervention by several other people to try and correct.

Over the past 4 years, this "doctor" totally missed my decline into MDS. I am now facing a long period of blood transfusions and chemotherapy and a sharp decline in my quality of life. The only upside is that the VA is having to pay thousands of dollars for my treatment because of his incompetency.

He and his nurse don’t listen and never seem prepared or care for that matter. The want to argue. Poor care!
