Patient Reviews
Jul 07, 2022
Excellent care for approximately 18 years! The staff at LaFayette Clinic has always been excellent from PA Hudak who followed my care as well and Nurse Angie who administered my infusions. Ms. Angie is a wonderful Nurse and pray I will come under her care again in my lifetime! Dr. Melton is retiring in about 2 months and I will truly miss her. She is Excellent in what she does and is very well known in the medical field due to her services. I have had medical personnel on Fort Bragg praise her for her work. I pray she enjoys her retirement and continue to be the GOAT! ( Greatest Of All Times!) ??
