I felt very heard with this doctor. I felt comfortable. I feel like he is one of the best doctors out there that actually listens to his patients and we need more doctors like him.
October 29, 2024
The doctor was very patient with me and I had all the care I needed and I loved the service he gave me.

Hi, this is Dr. Melnik. I just want to say that he's an excellent doctor. I feel 100% comfortable with him. He always listens to me, pays attention to me, and he always takes the time to make sure that I understand everything. So I would recommend the doctor to anybody.

Hi, my appointment scheduling process was flawless and my visit with Dr. Melnik was refreshingly supportive and efficient of course, but also a nice balance with his ability to listen and look at me as an entire patient as opposed to just whatever issue I came in to discuss. He was able to look at my history with PIH and look back at all my labs and all my visits and make an informed decision about where my care should go. And I found that very refreshing as most doctors nowadays are very specialized and really only looking at what you come in to discuss. So very, very positive.

Dr. Melnik was exceptional. Definitely an amazing doctor. Gave me the best care ever. Explained to me everything with detail to this time. He made me feel so comfortable. The staff was amazing as well. Very prompt. Very eager to help me in anything I needed. Most definitely (INAUDIBLE).

I just wanted to say that Dr. Seymour Melnik is one of the best doctors I've ever met in my life. He is very professional, makes you feel like a person, treats you with respect more than any doctor I've ever encountered, and our family has encountered many, many doctors. So I'm very impressed and feel very blessed to have Dr. Seymour Melnik as our, my doctor. Thank you.

Yes, hello. My name is (PHI removed) and this doctor was absolutely outstanding. I am so grateful. I was not well. I was given wrong information at my own family doctor and this doctor is absolutely outstanding. I would recommend him highly to anyone. Thank you.

Best experience
July 22, 2024
Dr. Melnick was outstanding. I am 64- years old and have had a few doctors and Dr. Melnick made me feel completely at ease. And to add a great sense of humor into my visit, I wish I could give him a higher score than 10. The office staff were very nice too. Dr. Melnick... I will never forget your "torture chamber". ????
July 22, 2024
The provider asked for ME to go see him in his office so he can look at my medical history. I made the appointment to request testing in which in the past the providers will be with me in the room and do a full examination but this provider just had the nurse order blood work and sent me my way, no physical examination was done. I spent about 2 minutes with the provider before I left. I paid a copayment to be seen 2 minutes and without a proper examination.
July 18, 2024
It's always a pleasure to see Dr. Melnik. He's thoughtful, caring, and a long-time friend.
July 12, 2024
This was a really relaxing and helpful visit. The doctor was very caring and very professional, and the nurse was very helpful and very funny and made me feel at ease.
July 12, 2024
I had never met a doctor who paid attention to me and was interested in my well-being, I loved this doctor
July 05, 2024
This Doctor lacked compassion. I went in because I wanted to be checked to start to have children. He basically told me I was morbidly obese and too old to have children. In my state of mind his callous way of speaking was the last thing I needed. A woman with high stress, overweight and at 37 unable to ovulate, this was not the provider for me. He absolutely should not be working with women. I cried all the way home and let me tell you driving and crying does not go well. I went to the Doctors to find a solution not to be condemned. I'm considering changing out of PIH because of this man. He shouldn't not be in medicine.
June 21, 2024
Dr. Seymour Melink is the kindest and detail doctor I have ever had. I hope he doesn't retire anytime soon.
June 13, 2024
Dr. Melnik has always listened to my concerns & gives advice when needed. I have been his patient for 30+ years. With that said I consider him the best gynecologist I have ever had.
June 05, 2024
Dr. Seymour Melnik is a caring, compassionate and knowledgeable doctor who eases my anxiety when I have questions about female issues I'm experiencing. I appreciate him and would drive a hundred miles (or more) to see him.

Dr Melnik is so gentle in treating his patients
March 22, 2024
I want to say that this doctor was one of the finest I've seen in a long, long time. He was respectful, sensitive to everything. He's a gynecologist. So this was the first time I saw him and it was just, I was just so delighted to have met him and I would see him again. He's just on a scale of 1 to 10, he's off the chart. He's wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. Thank you so much that you have a doctor like that, especially when it's such a personal gynecologist thing is very personal. So thank you again for him.
March 22, 2024
Seymour Melnik was incredibly professional and kind and made sure that I was comfortable as a new patient. There was a little bit of miscommunication at the beginning and I believe he was given the wrong file by one of the nurses. But as soon as we figured that out and cleared it up, he made sure to meet with me privately in his office first as a way to introduce himself and get to know me and I felt like I was heard and listened to properly. Thank you.
March 22, 2024
Kind. Caring. Professional.
March 21, 2024
Thank you so much. You listened and understood so much. Now I'm hoping to pursue your Urology referral very soon.
March 08, 2024
Everything was perfect. Very good doctor. It's just that the location is too far for me. But otherwise everything is very good.
March 08, 2024
Hi, Dr. Melnik was amazing. He's probably the best doctor that you guys have there. You should recommend him to everybody. He's thorough, he listens, he talks to me, he's amazing. I highly recommend him. Thank you.
March 06, 2024
First visit was okay since he seemed concerned about my well being and took time to ask questions. Second visit was awful!!! He rushed and didn't seem to care. Didn't seem to want to make conversations or seemed to care. Also he was suppose to call me and give me results for my lab test but never did. I had to make an appointment to see him in order to hear my results. Overall I don't think I'll be coming back to him.
March 06, 2024

February 28, 2024
Dr. Seymour Melnik has been my doctor for at least 50 years. I loved him and appreciated him on the first visit , and continue to now. He is what every doctor should be! I am so grateful he is still seeing patients !
February 23, 2024
Dr. Melnik and his staff are very professional and pleasant and he definitely takes the time to answer any questions and he asks me if there is anything else that he could help me with, which is so very special because usually doctors are in and out and don't take the time to answer any other questions that you might have concerning your health. So he's, they don't make them like him anymore. Thank you.
February 22, 2024
This doctor is the best doctor ever that I have privilege to see. That all the doctors that I wish I saw him years ago. He's the best he did listen. And so far, I am on my way to recovery. And I think I recommend him to anybody that needs a doctor. And I feel privileged to have him as a doctor of my life. Thank you.
February 22, 2024
Very caring and professional. He cares from the heart, very very great doctor!
February 15, 2024
One pill does not fit all, my symptoms were not listened to for my individual needs. The consultation was more about what decorations were going on the wall and the doctor retirement schedule .
February 08, 2024
Dr. Melnik was very calming and personable. And I feel like he really took his time and explained everything to me.
January 25, 2024
Dr. Seymour Melnik has been my doctor for many years. I completely trust him with my care. He is caring, thorough and very conscientious. I so appreciate him and his wonderful bedside manner. Thank you, Dr. Melnik!
January 23, 2024
I needed to see a physician for an inner labia abscess drainage on the day that I called in unable to make an appointment or get in with either Dr. (name removed or Dr. Seymour. I asked the nurses if or the actually the receptionist if they can squeeze me in and according to them they couldn't do it. So they refer me either go to ER and PIH or go to urgent care which I did go.
January 23, 2024
I just wanted to say that I did not need to have an appointment for what the doctor told me. It would have been just better if they could have just told me over the phone. I don't understand why I had to go pay $15, go spend an hour of my time for the doctor to tell me just to go get something over the counter.

Dr. Melnik made my experience wonderful! He was kind, respectful, and made me feel at ease. After neglecting what should have been regularly scheduled appointments, I'm glad Dr. Melnik was my first provider back!
November 22, 2023
I was called to reschedule for a new date and time. My original appointment was with Dr. (name removed) Melnik, front office staff failed to inform me that my appointment was being moved to a different physician because I agreed to move my time to different day, but they did not tell me it was going to be moved to Dr. Seymour Melnik when I really wanted to see Dr. (name removed) Melnik because he's seen me before and Dr. Seymour Melnik has not. So, the appointment seemed a little bit wasteful of time for what I needed.
