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.

Horrendous experience, avoid Dr. Melton at all costs. Unprofessional, barely knowledgeable, and horrendous bedside manner. Deeply uncomfortable experience.

Wonderful!
Came with my senior mother and Dr. Melton listened, comforted, detailed what he thought was going on and how he was going to dig deeper to be sure, kept us informed while waiting for tests and results from another department that was backed logged, and then gave us a clear path forward for managing her issues with a referred specialist. His knowledge and ability to clearly explain medical information in layman’s terms was so helpful and assured my mom and me that she was in very good hands.

Dr. Melton was fantastic, I brought my three-year-old son into the ER in the middle of the night. Dr. Melton had great bedside manner and made us feel at ease. I highly recommend Dr. Melton.
