This was my final consultation with Dr. Mella-Catinchi who was most explicit & clear in explaining my present and future opinions should I choose to proceed with some additional improvements or remain happy with the present results of my unilateral mastectomy and cemetery achievements. Excellent consultation we had.

Doctor is excellent

Dr. Mella-Catinchi is awesome! He is highly skilled and a very personable physician (rare combination for a physician). He is attentive, listens, & encourages one/one patient questions. Although the scaring from my breast mascetomy might (from my perspective) appear somewhat severe, I am blessed to have him as a member of my original surgery team on Jan 6th and continuing survivorship team. Thank you Dr. Mella-Catinchi.

Excellent doctor, very professional, he knows what he is doing, he is empathetic, he explains, he gives options, he is respectful, he makes you feel calm and he dedicates the time you need calmly, you do not feel that urgency to go see another patient that happens in most doctors in this country. 100% recommended
