Melissa is my favorite provider of all my doctors and as I have many, that is saying something. She is so very thorough in her questions. She listens and offers feedback that is helpful and will remember to follow up on the issues at the next visit. She works to build a rapport with her patients that is not seen in most doctor visits. It makes her professionalism stand out even more. I hope the Cleveland Clinic appreciates how wonderful it is to your patients to have someone of this caliber as part of your team.
