Dr. Melander has been my Orthopedic Surgeon since 2010. Due to my Osteoarthritis I have had several joint replacements. I have so much confidence and trust in Dr. Melander! He has always made me feel like he cares about my recovery AND he listens to me! He’s not just in and out of the room! His video says he may just spend five minutes with you, but he wants you to feel like he just spent 5 hours with you! Believe me, after 10 yrs. of surgeries and recoveries, I couldn’t have said it any better. He’s the BEST!

What a negative atmosphere in this office, from the Dr diem to the staff. No comprehensive exam. Fit me with a boot that was too large. Thought that at 71 I should be able to get around with crutches or a walker with a broken ankle. I would never go back to this office. Found another Dr that actually did a comprehensive exam of my foot, ankle & leg, fit me with a boot that actually fits. Acted like a real caring compassionate Dr. Dr Melander & staff could take a lesson!!

Dr Melander did a fantastic job on my knee. I tore my medial and lateral meniscus and thought running and sports were over. His excellent surgery as well as diligent coaching on rehabilitation has enabled me to play tennis at a very competitive level at 48. We trust our entire family to him and appreciate his skill and expertise.
