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.

Best Doctor ever
Dr. Mellano has been one of the greatest Dr's. I've had. She's very thorough. She's helped me with my issues and just the other day did my hysterectomy. She's very respectable of the LGBTQ patients who see her. She responds quickly and tends to your needs. Dr. Mellano follows up and checks on you right away she definently cares about her patients. I'm very grateful for having her on my care team.

Best Doctor I’ve ever seen
I went to see Dr. Mellano after having a hysterectomy at 23 years old. I had a D&C and a hysterectomy a year ago by the same doctor who told me it couldn’t be endometriosis because he didn’t see it. I saw 15+ other gynos who wouldn’t do another laparoscopy because they said it would’ve been caught if I had it. Dr. Mellano listened to me and did the operation two days ago. She called me today to confirm that I do have endometriosis and I also have ulcers from my interstitial cystitis in my bladder. I am so grateful she listened to me and that it’s not all in my head! Thank you so much Dr. Mellano, you have given me peace of mind.

I'm so glad I found Dr. Mellano because she is so kind, patient, empathetic, and knowledgeable for my tough-to-treat condition. I wish I could have found her sooner. I highly recommend seeing her if you also suffer from some type of pelvic pain.

I had multiple urinary problems. Dr. Mellano was clearly medically knowledgeable about all the problems, and quickly diagnosed and prescribed for them. Now, I am nearly symptom free. Moreover, she is kind, friendly, and personable. I felt able to share details of the problems without embarrassment, and she made me feel that she had ample time to listen to all that I had to say.

Dr. Mellano is a kind, bright, reassuring doctor who really cares about her patients. Her technique during procedures is gentle and deft. She is a urogynecologist so she is well versed in complicated problems like incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and how to treat them. The office staff is upbeat and efficient too.

Very experienced doctor. Made me feel cared for. She explained everything thoroughly and was very patient. She outlined my options for pelvic prolapse and made sure I understood. She was very gentle and made pelvic exams less embarrassing. I would definitely recommend Dr Mellano.
