Found him personable and received a thorough examination, however he had difficulty hearing me through my mask and was somewhat dismissive of my questions and concerns. Had requested a neuro-opthalmologist but was given an appointment with Dr Melem who is a neurologist dealing with eyes. My previous doctor handled all my vision needs including prescriptions and minor surgery, in addition to specialist medical visit. I was not expecting to have to find a second doctor to cover these.

Dr Melen was not familiar with my case when we began the appointment and was not following the conversation.

Dr. Melen was not good. He had a terrible bedside manner, did not ask me anything to understand why I was there, talked over me and interrupted when I did try and speak. He did not access my chart before hand and spent an hour with me to tell me he didn't know what was going on and that he could order an MRI. I had an MRI completed at Northwestern the week before which he would have known if he looked in my chart. And then wasted more of my time reviewing the results after he had just spent an hour not listening to me.

I am a black man and I don't believe NWH approach Minority health problem with equality. I have been under NWH care for over 18+ and in every case I have been subjected to under prescribe treatment, not equal. This was a great disappointment because NWH is rated among the top in the nation. Very Sad🤕

Very impersonal and said I should get punished for not taking my medication which i guess he’s passionate about me taking my meds but I was taken aback by his comment. He handled my eyes with no care, used a tissue that I saw him touch a door with and leave the room touching God knows what only to use that as a way to hold my eye lid. Then proceeds to give me 3 eye drops to dilate my eyes fast. Which he should have told the nurse who took my vitals to dilate my eyes! I stead of using 3 drops. I leave feeling horrible after seeing him. I wouldn’t recommend him to anyone I know.

He spent a lot of time going over my history and records I brought in, and Thoroughly discussed my way her case. Not once did I feel rushed. He wanted an additional test, had me take it, and immediately took me back in to discuss further.
