I am four weeks post-op from total hip replacement. Thanks to Dr. Melvin and his team I am doing excellent! Dr. Melvin provides a standard of care that I have never experienced. Dr. Melvin is excellent in his field and his credentials are impeccable. I was optimistic and had a whole new attitude about my hip situation after my first office visit. He left no stone un-turned checking out everything before recommending hip replacement.

I echo all of the other fabulous reviews about Dr. Melvin including his great skill, professionalism, accessibility and genuine care for his patients. I would add that Dr. Melvin is not just a doctor who shepherds patients in and out. He is passionate about his profession and strives for excellence. This is evidenced by his scholarly works and presentations. Like Dr. Melvin’s care, I have never experienced the level of care like his office and medical staff provide. His personal assistant is awesome, always accessible and responds to my inquiries in record time. Accolades to the Surgery Center in Bethesda. They took care of me like a baby. From start to finish they put me at ease.

For me, the thought of surgery was very scary. However, the element of trust in Dr. Melvin allowed me to overcome my fear and get this surgery behind me. Overall, I highly recommend Dr. Melvin to anyone and everyone. You will look at your other doctors through a different lens after you experience this level of care.

I want to thank the anesthesiologist, nurses, and other medical professionals and staff who made my experience at your facility as easy and successful as it could be. I had a scheduled L5-S1 discectomy on March 7th with Dr. Patel. I was very confident and comfortable with everyone who took care of me before and after surgery. May all of you continue to have a smiles on your faces and a positive attitudes throughout your upcoming days!

The BCC Surgery Center is a patient friendly, well equipped, and re-assuring place to have elective surgery. My husband had his hip replaced there two weeks ago. The surgeon was amazing, and the nurses and attending staff were very professional and friendly. They made what could have been a traumatic experience an enjoyable one. The nurses were all tp notch ER surgery veterans who provided great, personalized care, and the facilities were top notch. I recommend any one look at this option for the elective procedures they may need to have performed.
