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.

Excellent diagnostician
I have been a patient of Dr. Melsky for many years. Throughout the years Dr. Melsky and her staff have gone above and beyond their duties; she is an amazing doctor and an excellent diagnostician. Whenever I call the office and leave a message, they always return calls the same day. Dr. Melsky will exceed your expectations, she is thorough and has always made an accurate diagnosis. Recently, I went to see her with complaints of leg and foot pain. After accessing me she felt that I had a blocked artery. She made some phone call found a Vascular doctor that would see that same day. It was late in the afternoon and the doctor’s office had just closed for the day. She begged the doctor to see that afternoon and thanks to her persistence I was able to see the vascular doctor that same day. As it turned out, I had a blocked artery and needed surgery right away. If it wasn't for Dr. Melsky I would have lost my leg due to poor circulation. Dr. Melsky is an amazing doctor.

Speaking as a person who has seen my share of medical providers Vita Medical Center is by far the best. They are timely, professional and courteous. If you are looking for a provider that really cares Vita Medical Center is the one you want.

So far I find the doctor thorough, she flagged a possible liver condition and ordered correct tests. They are very busy, but the wait is never awful especially since I have recently contracted a bad pulmonary infection and they have squeezed me in twice. A good overall practice with a busy yet accommodating pleasant staff.

Dr. Melsky is very nice and caring. It's her office staff I have a problem with. I called ahead of time to make sure they take my insurance and they assured me they do. The day of my appointment I asked them to check again, before they drew my blood I asked a 3rd time. A few weeks later I got charged $2000 because they don't accept my insurance. I had to pay all that out of pocket even though they assured me so many times that they take my insurance. Very disappointing and unprofessional.
