Surgeons - Washington, DC

"Dr. Melancon did my kidney transplant and was able to save a very difficult transplant with problems with the kidney itself. My doctor (not in the same practice as Dr. Melancon) has said that he is the reason that my transplant succeeded. Another doctor would have given up sooner, and stopped trying. He does have an ego, it’s true. So does every transplant surgeon. But I would trust him with my life."

"Thanks to Dr. Berdia I am able to use my hand without pain. He clearly explained all of the options for care and helped me to make informed decisions. He listened actively, provided extensive explanations, and took the time to answer my questions. He was punctual for my initial appointment and follow-ups. Scheduling virtual appointments was easy. It was helpful that virtual appointments were available on weekends. The only time a virtual appointment before mine ran a few minutes over, Dr. Berdia sent an update before my appointment to let me know. I appreciated his clear, timely communication. I interacted with the employees at two of the Orthopaedic Center's locations. Everyone who helped me at both offices was pleasant, efficient, and helpful. "

"It's so hard to find a good specialist. But Dr. Makki is the best ENT in the DC metro!! He was able to diagnose my infection, take the pressure out of my ear with some machine and gave me medication in the office that within an hour made me feel 100X better. He is the Head of Wash Hosp Center's Head and Neck surgery Dept. Finally, he has gone out of his way for me and helped me with other medical conditions that he was well aware of.. Very smart and helpful doc... "
