I have been a patient of Dr. Melinda Kakish for a few years now. She always takes her time and never makes you feel as if she is in a hurry. To me, that is one of the most important things I look for in a doctor. If they are always in a hurry you never feel that they really care about you and your health. Way to go Dr. Kakish!!

I am highly satisfied with Dr Kakish. She has a great bedside manner, encourages my questions and provides the answers to all my concerns. She calls me promptly with test results and calls in refills to my pharmacy on the same day I request them. She really cares about her patients and their health!
