"My first impression of Dr. Melkonian was, he's not very friendly. After my second meeting with him I realized that he is just one of those Doctors thats gets to the point and knows what he's talking about. He took his time with me and answered many, many questions. His staff was great and very helpful at getting me approved very quick. It took anly a month from my first surgical seminar to get a surgery scheduled. I had no complications from my surgery what so ever. I was up walking around that evening. I hardly had any pain, asked to be removed from morphine the morning after surgery. I couldn't believe how well my recovery went. Even though his bedside manner lacks a little, his skills and knowledge make up for it ten times over. I would recommend Dr. Melkonian to anyone, he is a great surgeon."
