Dr. Mielo was recommended to me by a trusted friend who retired as his office manager. After working for him for years, she believed him to be compassionate and ethical, professional and skilled. I had recently moved to the area and went to an HMO dentist listed by my insurance provider. After a lifetime of near-perfect dental health, this HMO dentist recommended numerous invasive and expensive procedures involving drilling and scaling. Moreover, she wanted to replace a perfectly sound bridge. I paid to see Dr. Mielo for a second opinion, as he wasn't covered by my HMO, and it was money well-spent. He did a thorough dental examination and talked with me at length about the condition of my teeth. He assured me that I needed no procedure and that my bridge was sound. I've been a patient of Dr. Mielo's at Round Valley Dentistry for over 7 years, now, and consider myself extremely fortunate to have found him. His office is technologically state-of-the-art, immaculately clean and organized, and comfortable. He doesn't overbook, so patients never have to wait more than 5 minutes for their appointments, and he has plenty of time to thoroughly explain examination results. Moreover, Dr. Mielo is funny, confident, and personable. He explains everything associated with my care in a way that anyone could easily understand, and makes his patients feel comfortable and at-ease. He's a genuinely nice person who is interested in his patients' well-being and happiness. Every piece of advice he has given me has resulted in consistently improved dental health.
Dr. Mielo and his staff listen intently to their patients and take the time to thoroughly answer questions. As one can see in the photos on their website, each examination chair has a computer monitor in front of it, so patients can see their x-rays and other records whilst they're being explained. Dr. Mielo is a clinical instructor on the attending staff at Lehigh Valley Hospital, so his technology, procedures, and knowledge are the most advanced available. I've seen 3 different hygienists since I've been his patient, and all were super compassionate and gentle. I have extremely sensitive teeth, and I've never had an unpleasant cleaning. The current office manager is absolutely lovely, and really goes out of her way to accommodate patients' schedules. Dental assistants and other office staff are always friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. I see Dr. Mielo as an out-of-network dentist, and he has always worked with me and my insurance to keep my care affordable.
