He was very patient and thorough with the well check visit for my kids. He answered every question we had and went above and beyond to make us feel at ease. He’s very easy to talk to as is his staff. His nurse Heather is so kind and compassionate. Instead of being afraid of the doctor, my kids love to go.

Dr. Melton and Nurse Heather are a great team. Each time we’ve been we have received efficient, competent, and compassionate care. I appreciate the timeliness of responses to inquiries, and that they value our time without sloughing on patient care. I highly recommend to anyone searching for a great pediatric experience.

Dr. Melton is the best! He has taken care of our children since they were newborns. He along with his staff and doctors associated with him, (Dr. Drum) have always been very professional and personable. They have always gone above and beyond to give us the best care available. I would highly recommend Dr. Melton to anyone.

Dr Melton is tops. My grandson has seen him since birth - 16 years. Dr Melton treats him as an adult - speaking directly with, asking questions, listening intently and providing sound advice and treatment.

Both of my children have seen Dr. Melton since they were born - 17 years in December. I can’t say enough about how great he has been over that time. He’s seen us when we had a lapse in insurance after a job change many years ago, he’s returned calls while trick or treating with his kids when I had a sick baby on her first Halloween. He’s amazing and we love him dearly.

We have been going to Dr. Melton for over 15 years now-he’s the BEST! We even continue to make the trip after we moved from BR to the Opelousas area. He is very thorough and caring. His nurse, Heather, is also amazing! They make an awesome healthcare team and are totally worth the drive!

Dr. Melton is a fantastic pediatrician . I have no doubt that he cares deeply about the well being of all of his sweet babies and children. He is very attentive and listens to any concerns I may have regarding my daughter’s health and development. Furthermore, he has the best nurse in Mrs. Heather. If you are a new mom, like myself, and are looking for a knowledgeable and experienced pediatrician to see for your baby’s health, Dr. Melton is the pediatrician for you.
