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.

An Outstanding Physician and Surgeon!
Dr. Phillip Melendez is a rare Physician in this generation. He has a true passion for the well being and safety of his patients. I am 79 years of age with serious health issues and was requesting surgery clearance. He evaluated my overall issues and age very carefully and gave me his very sincere, and professional opinion. He did not advise surgery for me without trying an alternative medical device which so far is working fine. I have given this a lot of thought and I know he is right. He is the Surgeon taking the risk. And I feel my life and the risk factors are very important to him. I do have a narrow window of clearance and wellness to do the surgery. And the risk is medium to high. I am very impressed with his judgment. And how he obviously cares about his patients with his whole heart and soul. A Physician with high Standards of Professionalism. His entire Staff is very caring and professional as well..I am very grateful!

I have been seeing Dr Melendez for about 15 yrs now. He always explains everything to me, he asks me if I have any questions and he always says are you sure if I tell him no. Dr Melendez has done 2 surgery's for me and I trust him with my life. He has also delivered 3 of my grand children and did an excellent job. He was always just in time for my daughter. Dr Melendez is highly respected by myself and my daughter

Dr. Melendez is very attentive! He cares for each patient as if they are his own family. Each visit I have had to wait a little past my appointment time, but it's well worth the wait. I absolutely love him and would not let anyone else deliver my children! Strongly recommend him!!
