At Patch, we don’t take shortcuts. That’s why we hire professional
editors and contributors in each of our towns and personally visit
every business in our Directory at least once a year.
Despite our best efforts, sometimes a personal visit is not possible
— a business might be run out of a home or the owner may be too busy.
In this case, we list the business on Patch with as much information as
we have. And because we believe in full disclosure, we include our
verification disclaimer.
We are always looking for feedback on our listings and the verification
process, so if you see incorrect information or have an opinion, please
send us your thoughts. If you are the owner or manager of a business or
organization, you can claim a listing and help determine what
information is displayed on Patch.
We have been going to Douglas Pediatrics for over 10 years, longer than the people in the office. Dr. Melendez is the best doctor in the office. For years, I called the office prior to hours of operations and always received a phone call back promptly. Back in July, I called the office on two different occasions and they never returned my call. Today again, October 24th, my son has chest pain and it is 10am and no one has back yet, unbelievable.
It seems patients(children) are no longer important; time to find a new office.
