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.
