Dr. Schmeltz is a good as it gets. Talks to you like a person not just a patient. His care is the very best of the very best. He'll give you options, and explain you to you what's working for you. He takes the time to discuss options and ideas, and wants to hear what is working for you. I very much appreciate the life goals he's helped me to achieve.

I've been a T-1 Diabetic since i was three years old. During my almost 40 years with this horrible disease, I haven't controlled it very well. Dr. Schmeltz got my A1C down to a 6.7 (I was around a 9.5 when I started seeing him). I see people give him one star reviews because he is "Smug" or "Arrogant" and when i first saw him I thought that too. Now I realize he wasn't, he cares about people and tells it the way it is. Some people don't want to hear the truth so they get mad. Thanks to his office, my Diabetes is under better control and I hope to get it controlled even better.
