    This is how health care should be. I feel genuinely valued as a patient. I have missed that feeling for many years with another provider.

    Dr. Mellion is simply the best & most personable surgeon I've ever met. She's fun, explains things well, and is comforting. She's a real gem.

    I would like to have people understand when someone is in pain and move a bit slower when pushing them in the wheelchair

    Dr. Mellion was very nice and she thoroughly explained everything I needed to know about my surgery. And she will be the one doing my surgery. I trust her whole heartily.
