Good guy and a stellar surgeon. Could not be taken care of better by He and Nate.

He is the best of the best. Made me feel comfortable through out the whole process. Listened to what I had to say and my surgery was so good. I highly recommend him and his staff.

He listens to my concerns, explains my options and. gives pros & cons for each option so I can make an informed decision. My hands have osteo arthritis, he replaced a knuckle 12/2026.
No more pain! He also did trigger finger surgery on both hands, I did my stretching exercises & I'm very happy with results! Now I'm going to have the big ganglion on my thumb knuckle removed. I am very happy with Dr Melinger & highly recommend him
