I had to sit in the exam room for over half an hour before the doctor came in to check me.
This was my Wellness Visit. Dr. Mello and her medical assistant always listen to my concerns. They seem interested in my life as well as my health.
Good interaction with staff and PCP Erika Mello. Thorough review of my labs and discussed my conditions and gave me thoughtful recommendations for future treatment course. She is easy to talk with and explains everything very well. I am happy to have her as my new PCP.
Everything was great. The staff was excellent. When I checked in the woman who took care of me was probably one of the most positive and friendlest people I've ever dealt with in that office. I really love Dr. Mello. Her knowledge of my health made me feel like I mattered. I would highly recommend her
Everyone I came in contact with today was SUPER GREAT !!!!
I was seen 75 minutes after my appointment time started, it was an early morning appointment so there was not a lot of time for it to get behind. It was frustrating to wait an hour in the room to be seen for 10 minutes.
I love Dr. Mello. She is a caring, knowledgeable physician.
I saw the doctor and she was very thorough with my visit She listin to me and she told me ways to take care of my heath she did asked me meny of questions about what was wrong with me she even told me ways to take care of my self . My doctor is the best I like that she is so thorough and I will continue seeing her
I am satisfied with everything.
I feel Dr. Mello took the time to understand my health. This was a first time visit. She was attentive and very validating. I came from Hawthorne and I felt very invalidated over there. Already being with Southcoast just for a little while, I finally feel seen and heard.
No complaints at all Always well taken care of at this office
Everyone one there was great. From the first PaR I meet, [Name] to the manager… they were all fantastic to me! Thank you!
Dr. Mello is kind, patient, and genuinely cares for her patients. It's rare, yet refreshing to see.
I truly believe my doctor has my best interests at hand. Doctor Mello has been my primary care physician for many years now and I like her so much that I choose to drive over an hour to see her. Most people would switch doctors but I could never Doctor Mello and her staff are the best.
My physical with Dr. Mello went very well. She always uses words that you understand with her explanations. Dr Mello gives you her attention, she is truly there for all your cares and concerns. Also I want to bring to your attention how wonderful your check in and check out staff is. They are all so pleasant and comforting ??
Dr. MELLO was very thorough in explaining my health in regard to upcoming surgery.
Dr Mello and her staff are always wonderful. I arrived 18 months ago, having moved to RI from OH. I have a disease that is not part of medical training. Dr Mello was honest about her lack of knowledge at that time, but has made the effort to learn. I believe that, in the future, she will be able to offer me care that I must travel to NYC for currently.
The doctor seems to understand my difficulty getting around. Will only have to see her on an annual basis unless I need to address a problem
From the check in to the check out and seeing the physician -everyone was extremely pleasant.
Every one treated me well
Dr. Mello is a great provider! I have been dealing with weight issues and she is extremely patient with me is a partner in my health journey. She prescription me medication but I ultimately decided not to take it. She has been helping me with this decision for 2 years and is always helpful and encouraging with whatever I decide. I'm grateful for her care.
Doctor Mello always listens, advises and procedes with my health care issues and needs in a professional and caring manner. That is very important to me and my well being. I can say the same to all staff support in the office, Assistant, Nurses and front desk

Always satisfied.
All personnel well kind and courteous. Dr. Mello was very compassionate and took time (I was not rushed out like with most doctors) and she really listened. She asked me many questions about my health and history of procedures and she took the time to educate me regarding the procedure she did for me. And the cost was very fair.
Dr. Mello is an excellent doctor. She takes her time to explain all the aspects of the exam in words you understand.
