Patient Reviews
Oct 23, 2024
Dr. Melamud is simply superb in every respect. His professionalism, compassion, and courtesy are exemplary. He displayed sincere concern for my issues, listening patiently and providing exceptionally clear answers and explanations of my condition and treatment options. He showed me the imagery highlighting the areas that required attention. I never felt rushed or that he had other patients to see. The Clinic staff and nurses are cut of the same cloth. At this point I can't imagine going to another medical clinic for me treatment and feel both blessed and privileged to be a patient at The Retina Group of Washington.
