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.

Dr. Melear is wonderful, caring and experienced.
Dr. Melear has been my doctor for 2 years since I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. He has always made me feel hopeful and confident that I was receiving the best treatment possible. He has a calm and friendly demeanor and takes the time to listen and answer any questions I have. Dr. Melear is extremely knowledgeable and competent in his field and I trust him completely. His staff is also wonderful. Cancer is very scary, and a good and caring doctor is so important. I am so thankful that I am under his care!

Highly Recommended
Dr. Melear has provided me with follow up care ever since my original oncologist left Texas Oncology several years ago. Dr. Melear has provided me with caring competent care. I continue to see him and get blood tests every year although I have been “cancer free” for seven years. He answers any questions I may have and demonstrates a genuine concern for my continued good health.. Dr. Melear as well as the entire staff at Texas Oncology are committed to providing the best care and treatment to all in need of their services.I will forever be grateful for their professionalism, competence and dedication to making me well.Highly recommended!

He knows all the options you might need.
He is always “up” on what’s new and needed. And does not hesitate spending time explaining what different drugs do and what side effects might occur.
