Reviews by Dr. Mele's Patients
San Francisco Bay Area Plastic Surgery Reviews in Walnut Creek, CA
I wanted to make sure that I commented on the excellent care that I received from Dr. Mele and his wonderful staff. I had a Full face lift with my upper and lower eye lids done. Dr. Mele is professional, kind, polite and ethical. He is highly skilled at his profession. He made me feel very safe and cared for. He has an excellent bedside manner. I highly recommend him to anyone who is considering having any plastic surgery done. He is the one to see. I was taken care of every step of the process. The ladies in the office were more than generous with their time and answered any questions I had. Dr. Mele called me at home after my procedure to personally see how I was doing. He enjoys what he does and it shows. He made me look like me, just younger. (You can see my before and after photos on the website.) Not only am I completely satisfied, but everyone I know is "impressed" and " amazed" with the outcome, including me. I am so glad that I went to Dr. Mele. I definitely made the right choice.

At 66 years old I was past the recommended age for a mini facelift, but general anesthetic was not an option I wanted to consider. I interviewed several surgeons, but found Dr. Mele to be the best for several reasons. Dr. Mele listens, really listens. He pays careful attention to what you say as well as what you don't say. He discusses the procedure's pros and cons with you, taking whatever time needed to make sure there is clarity in the decision one makes. He does not use a general one size fits all approach, rather he celebrates our uniqueness and strives to satisfy individual goals. Dr. Mele pays careful attention to detail and above all, he is an excellent surgeon. Dr. Mele's staff is caring, compassionate and understanding. I am ecstatic with the results. My mini facelift is such a boost to my self-esteem. When I look in the mirror, I recognize myself. I highly recommend Dr. Mele.

After hours and hours spent on the Internet researching Doctors for a revision surgery, I decided upon Dr. Mele. I interviewed four other surgeons
in Northern Calif. and one in Southern Calif. I heard different answers as to what to do. After more research I decided upon Dr. Mele. He is a
wonderful person first off with a great sense of humor. That being said, we hit it off. Now on to the surgeon skills. My case was not the easiest
one in the books. Dr. Mele was very precise in giving me options and suggestions. I listened very carefully to what he had to say. I did not want
to jump into something to quickly but I knew I was going to take care of my problem. Well. I did and I am very happy. His work is wonderful. I am
extremely pleased with my results. His staff is fantastic too. Very calm and not pushy about payments or signing anything right away. Dr. Mele
communicated with me extensively via phone and email. My consultation and post op were very through. He is a true professional My experience from
start to finish was ethical yet easy going. He spent an extra amount of time with me and explained things to me in terms I could understand. I never
felt rushed, because I wasn't. Today I am glad I chose Dr. Mele. I made the correct decision. I was never nervous with him either. Excellent outcome!!

Dr. Mele was referred to me by another patient of his. I am so thankful! After my consultation I knew he was the right surgeon for me! This is my
second surgery with Dr. Mele. I love the results that I have seen so far after surgery. It is exactly what I wanted and couldn't ask for more.
Dr. Mele and his staff rise beyond professionalism. They are courteous, attentive and thorough in the explanation and details needed to allow me
to make the proper decisions. I highly recommend Dr. Mele!

Dr. Mele is an amazing plastic surgeon. I chose him after hearing at least two other plastic surgeons (retired) say that he was the best.
That's no lie. I worried for years about having the procedure done, since I had seen the scars left on a friend who had a tummy tuck.
My scar is almost invisible -- and with a few more laser treatments I suspect it will be even more unobtrusive. When I commented on this,
he told me that he "does his own closing" since "you are paying for how it looks." He takes real pride in his work. The office staff is
also wonderful -- responsive and friendly. I can't say enough nice things about this office and Dr. Mele.

Where do I begin? Dr. Mele has been my surgeon for 12 years & I keep going back to him because he is simply the best! I've also sent
friends & family members to him & the results speak for themselves. Not only is Dr. Mele one of the finest plastic surgeons around, he
also has a bedside manner that you just won't find today. Dr. Mele takes time to listen, explain & let you ask questions until you are
satisfied 100%. He is one of the most ethical Dr's as well, and will be honest with you (some people just want the answer they want to
hear) he manages to do this with tact, decorum & class, one will not be disappointed with Dr. Mele, he is simply the best around! I was
sent to him by a dermatologist who didn't want to touch my face (as I was working as a professional model at the time) Dr. Mele removed
a mole without a trace of a scar & I've been hooked ever since. If you want the best, Dr. Mele is the ticket!!

Over the last ten years, I have had multiple surgical procedures
performed by Dr. Mele. I consider him a surgical artist with talents
beyond reproach. He is always honest, explains every aspect of the procedures (which includes downtime, expected discomfort, and recovery),
and a true gentlemen. For anyone seeking surgical talent in the Bay Area, Dr. Mele is on the top of the list.

Came to Dr. Mele six years ago. Did Transconjunctival Lower
Blepharoplasty, with local anesthesia and intravenous sedation in my early
thirties, very happy. Doing Botox and Perlane approximately once a year, considering upper eyelid partial blepharoplasty. Dr. Mele is
knowledgeable, professional, friendly person. Office ladies are great: Marsha, Rebecca.
I've had an unpleasant experience with another Walnut Creek Dr. /dermatologist with Botox procedure... not going to experiment anymore. I'd rather wait when Dr. Mele is available!

I am so happy with my experience with Dr Mele. His staff are
fantastic, pleasant and helpful, and discreet when needed. Dr Mele is kind,
encouraging, and made me feel comfortable. I had fairly major reconstructive work done (no, not boobies!) and am very satisfied with the
outcome. I was realistic, knew the potential complications, and followed the treatment plan.
Being a good patient is as important as having a good doctor to have a great outcome. I recommend Dr Mele without reservation.

Dr. Mele gave me a fantastic lip augmentation. He is personable,
caring, meticulous, and has a great deal of technical skill. Spent a lot of
time listening to my concerns and explaining the procedure. Price is very reasonable as well. I like that the office decor and the staff is
refreshingly unpretentious for a plastic surgery office. I highly recommend!
