Dr Melander did a fantastic job on my knee. I tore the medial and lateral meniscus and many times such an injury ends tennis careers. 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.

I started seeing Dr Melander after back surgery for serious central canal stenosis. While the surgery was a success, the treating doc could not help me recover from VERY TROUBLING residual musculoskeletal issues. Referred to Dr. Melander by my PCP, he has treateded my problems with GREAT SUCCESS! With Dr. Melander’s reassurance, and medical treatments, I worked through my difficulties and now my “active” life is restored to me. YAY! Doc is thorough, concerned, and kind. Important qualities!

Dr. Melander did my husbands surgery. Steel plate and 6 screws to put a collar bone back together. He did a great job and got my husband back and moving in time to compete in his Ironman 5 months after his surgery. Highly recommend!
