Modern Day Medicine vs the Dad Approach

I recently read a quote in an article that discusses the traditional paternalistic model of medicine (where the patient blindly obeys the MD) versus a transformation in the last 20 years to a more patient-centered model. The patient-centered approach is described as one where “the physician tries to enter the patient's world, to see the illness through the patient's eyes”. Immediately, I though of my experience with Dr. Melnick compared to all other MDs. He is the best!

Truly Grateful to Have Found Dr. Melnick

Absolutely wonderful, knowledgeable, and caring doctor. As a scientist, I'm very interesting in learning about the physiology and biochemistry and of what is occurring with my Hashimoto's Disease. He is able to explain it so well and sees every patient as a different case, rather than grouped into one classification of what Hashimoto's and thyroid disease is. His experience and demeanor is so refreshing in today's medical world and I am truly grateful to have found him.

Best thyroid/fertility specialist in NYC

Thanks to Dr. Melnick's expertise in both the fields of fertility and encodrinology, I was able to get pregnant naturally at 44, avoid a miscarriage, and deliver a healthy baby girl. Unlike other endocrinologists that medicate you solely based on bloodwork, Dr. Melnick listens to your symptoms, medical history, and other personal information and takes a more tailored approach. He gave us hope and a baby where other doctors had basically told us to give up. Dr. Melnick understands the unique relationship between thyroid function and fertility function and will medicate you appropriately. We thank Dr. Melnick deeply for helping us achieve the family of our dreams.

Changed my life in three visits

Dr. Melnick is truly a godsend. His understanding and depth of knowledge of thyroid endocrinology surpasses that of any of the top doctors I have worked with in NYC. He orders COMPLETE labwork and closely monitors patients to provide optimal care. Ive felt better than the past two months I have in most of my life--literally like a new person. My only regret is that I hadn't met him 20 years ago!
