    I visited Dr. Melgar's practice, Southtowns Asthma and Allergy, for a long-standing problem I've…read morehad with my lips (they puff up and crack, especially eating cinnamon. It's not as "Jolie sexy" as it sounds). Getting an appointment was no problem, and I was able to get on the schedule within about a week. This review is not for Dr Melgar, since I did not meet him. His PA, Jessica Drexlinger, was very professional and extremely knowledgeable. She took a great deal of time considering the pathology of my case and testing every possible scenario. It was wonderful to have a medical professional take my problem seriously, instead of just handing me some cortisone and sending me on my way.

    My 1 star review is for Dr. Melgar's staff. I've never experienced such ignorance, sloth,…read morebelligerence, incompetence, and bigotry in all my years combined. I am looking into legal action action against them. Why? 2 weeks ago, my mother-in-law went to see Dr. Melgar. He ordered blood work for her. We paid for this visit ourselves, no insurance. 1 week ago, my mother-in-law was approved for medicaid and received her card. Today, she went for blood work ordered by Dr. Melgar. For one of the orders, the facility required something extra, a code of some kind. Dr. Melgar's staff member refused to do this, calling my wife a liar, that her mother had medicaid all along and they don't accept Medicaid. (Completely ignoring the fact we paid for the visit without Medicaid) She was so rude & hostile that my wife called me in angry tears. Complete refusal to fulfill their duties, simply because they are too lazy. We paid for the service. All they have to do is fulfill their obligation started by Dr. Melgar's orders. We can take the results to another doctor. No problem. But we can't take the results if the morons won't give the OK for the doctor's orders. We shouldn't have to pay another doctor to give the exact same order.
