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. Melendez is a very caring and compassionate surgeon, I broke my ankle and he has done a fabulous job with me! I am confident he will get me through this journey. As a nurse I have been very impressed with his bedside manner as well as his discussions of my injury with me. He is very knowledgeable as well, and his office staff are as kind and compassionate as he is - especially Louise!

Dr. Melendez performed Scapho-Lunate surgery on my right wrist back in 1990 while we were both in the U.S. Air Force. He was a"Brilliant" Surgeon according to the many doctors who have x-rayed my wrist over the years at the Veterans Affairs Hospitals for review. They all said that the closure of the injury has never changed and that whoever performed the surgery did a magnificent job! Thank you Dr. Melendez! P.S. I too am in the Tampa area

Excellent. Very friendly and professional. He explained everything in detail to me and spent all the time I needed to understand the procedure I was going to have done. He is a very caring person who has a passion for medicine, especially the hand.
