Dr Melnik is a gentle soul who's medical care is unmatched. I felt listened to and he explained things slowly and carefully. I didn't feel rushed and I love that we sat in his office to talk.

This doctor was more worried of how I felt and also the history to determine the cause that I keep going back and going back. He really wanted to help and I'm very extremely happy that he still is going to follow up with me to make sure that I'm doing well.

i usually see whoever is available, which is what led me to see Dr. Melnick. This was hands down the best experience i've had at PIH HEALTH, ever and i've been coming here my whole life. after my exam, Dr invited me to his office so he could explain what's going on in a more comfortable less vulnerable space- this was such a thoughtful gesture. and i'll never forget it. 10/10 experience more doctors should follow his example.
September 25, 2025
Dr. Melnik is wonderful !! And his staff is just as great. We need more offices like this one.
September 22, 2025
I have been a patient of Dr.Melnik's for over 37 years. He is still as caring a doctor now as he was 37 years ago. I wish there were more doctors like him
August 27, 2025
When I made the appointment I was treated with so much respect the appointment scheduler was nice, courteous, and professional. The medical assistant who took care of me in the back was awesome and wonderful and so professional the back office staff was fabulous.. the front office staff was absolutely horrible and unprofessional. It was the worst experience I ever had when I walked in. I was asked if I had an appointment I said yes she said give me your $20 copayment asked if I wanted a receipt told me to sit down. I was never greeted. There was no smile. There was no interaction. It was cold as ice and so unprofessional. The two girls that sat at the front reception. Desk were gossiping and talking about everything and everyone never asked anything to me. There was no greeting. It was horrible absolutely horrible then when my appointment was over, I walked out. They never said goodbye to me. They never said thank you for coming. They never said anything. They continue to talk amongst one another. it was horrible absolutely unprofessional and horrible. I just looked at them thinking they were gonna say goodbye thank you for coming. Have a nice day they did not even look at me. They did not acknowledge me. It was the worst experience I ever had in my life being that I was a previous 25 year employee with this company. I was treated with so much respect and dignity by the back office, the medical assistant who took me to the room and took my blood pressure and asked me questions why I was there was so kind and professional. I wanted to tell her about how I was treated at the front desk, but I don't feel it was my position to do so I was treated with so much respect by Dr. Melnik. He took so much time with me. He is so professional and nice but his front office staff. The date of this visit was the most worst experience ever they never said hello how are you? They just ignored me. I was the only one in the waiting room, the only person that I even showed up 30 minutes early before my appointment they are horrible.

It was my first time a Dr took time to listen only concerns & explain every throughly.
August 27, 2025
Dr. Seymour Melnik was very patient and attentive. It was a wonderful surprise to have him as my doctor, and I will definitely choose him as my primary physician moving forward. Also his STAFF. Thank you.
August 21, 2025
Dr Melnik has been my OB/GYN for 40+ years. I trust him implicitly.
August 21, 2025
Yes, thank you for calling. The doctor that helped me that you're calling about was very, very informative. He knew what he was doing, and I do trust him and his nurse. I came home feeling that I will be taken care of. And that is so important to us as I'm a senior citizen and we get sick more often because of our age. So I just thank the doctor for helping me so much.

The doctor is very knowledgeable, takes time explaining, answering all the questions that I had. I actually referred a friend who lives in Chino Hills to him, and she came. She got an appointment quickly. She needed a procedure, scheduled a procedure quickly, and everything was well. I would recommend him to anybody in my family.

Thank you very much Dr. Melnik, I appreciate your dedication to best practices and effort in a tough job!
May 28, 2025
The staff, since I entered, along with the doctor, were very prompt in the intention and care I received. They immediately called in my prescription. They did a follow-up call. The scheduling was done in a turnaround service very quickly. I was very pleased with the way they handled my care, and I would definitely go back when I needed it.

It was a great visit with Dr Melnik

Hi, I would just like to say that Dr. Seymour was so nice and sweet. As soon as he walked into the office, I mean, to the like, the exam room, he sat down at my level and he introduced himself. He shook my hand and he said that he had all the time that was needed to hear what my concerns were. I was able to discuss with him the symptoms that I was having and then he examined me and after, which I thought was really nice that, he had to do like a vaginal exam. Of course, the nurse was present. But after he did the exam, he gave me a tissue to wipe myself, which I thought that was very nice. A lot of providers don't do that. They don't give you, a tissue to wipe yourself after. And he told me that I could meet with him in his office to further explain

My name is (PHI removed) and I was very pleased with the provider. He took his time. He asked me if I had any more questions, more than once, and I would recommend him. He was amazing.
April 29, 2025
Dr. Melnik is such a compassionate and caring man. He makes you feel like your concerns are validated and takes the time to listen! No judgement and he will offer advice and alternatives. Just the most absolute sweetest Doctor ever!!

I'm going through a very scary time with my recent breast cancer diagnosis. I made an appointment with Dr. Melnik in a pinch when I experienced some breakthrough bleeding. He was extremely kind and reassuring. He made sure so felt safe and explained why my body was reacting to this news the way it was. He comforted me with kind words and was very gentle during the exam. He's an older man with a lot of experience and certainly cares for his patients. To him, I was a total stranger but it felt like I'd known him a lifetime. I highly recommend seeing him before he retires.
March 31, 2025
The entire treatment and service were excellent, with Dr. Magnet and Dr. Meca's father. I am grateful. Thank you very much.
March 25, 2025
I would have to say that Dr. Seymour Melnik is the best doctor I've ever seen. He's very nice. He's attentive. He listens to you. He really shows he cares. We don't have doctors like that anymore. You may need to hire more doctors like him. So I would - I could just continue talking about how great Dr. Seymour Melnik is. And I hope he doesn't retire soon. Thank you.
March 25, 2025
Dr. Melnik, Senior Melnik is very caring and gentle and very understanding and I think he's a complete asset there at PIH. Very easy to get in with and available and very much listens to your needs. So I very much appreciate him and his son is just as amazing, Dr. (name removed) Melnick. Thanks, bye.
March 25, 2025
Mr Melnik Sr. was thoughtful and listened carefully to ask that I had to share before starting the exam
March 19, 2025
What I liked a lot was the attention and how much time they took to explain everything and answer all my questions. The staff was very kind. The only thing that frustrated me was the time. My appointment was at 10:15, but I wasn't seen in the office until 11:00. So, I ended up waiting about 20 minutes outside and then more time in the office. That's the only issue, as time was a bit tight. Thank you.
March 19, 2025
Dr. Melnik is truly outstanding. He throughly explained my diagnosis and the various courses of action available to address my issues. He was kind and gentle and put me totally at ease. I came away from his office with optimism and peace of mind. His many years of experience have made him a gifted doctor. I feel very lucky to have access to his expertise.
March 17, 2025
Dr. MELNIK is an excellent example of what patients need today. He listens you and explains what is going on . He should be teaching other doctors about bedside manner!!
March 17, 2025
The doctor spent quality time with me and I really appreciated that. He went into detail on what the surgery would entail and even had me come into his office. He let me know his son would be doing the surgery and that I was in good hands. That made me feel a whole lot better!
March 13, 2025
Dr. Seymour Melnik has been my doctor for over 50 years. Delivered 1 of my babies. He is smart, kind, thoughtful and a really great person. He has always been a great Doctor. When he retires, we r going to loose one of the best!!!
