Testimonials

See what our patients are saying!

I’m impressed with your staff and with Dr. Melfi’s response to my questions and her knowledge.

Thank you.

– MJR

I cannot thank Dr. Melfi and the team at RSM for helping me to live an almost pain free life. I tell everyone how awesome and helpful they are. I give my appointment cards to people so they can get the help they need right now.

– SW

Excellent. No complaint since day one we have been here.

– TP

My sincere thanks to office staff, especially Barb for all their follow-up with my treatments and appointments.

– RT

Since I have been coming here, I have enjoyed the care I have received. The staff is amazing, professional, caring and just well rounded. Rachel is great as she is always good about listening and giving guidance on how to come to a resolution. This office is great at the care they give.

– TC

RSM is the most efficient and courteous medical facility/Dr.’s office I have ever been involved with. I have been to many pain management/Dr.’s offices the last ten years in both Tampa, FL and Syracuse, NY but have never been treated with such professionalism and respect as I have received from Dr. Melfi and her staff. I am currently finishing up knee injection series that have given me much relief and will be inquiring about a protocol for my back. Thanks to everyone at RSM!

– JS

Having acupuncture has allowed me to not be dependent on drugs for my pain relief. The office staff and it’s providers are top notch. Our “paperwork” is in order and the helpful staff goes above and beyond for us. Thanks Barb.

– CP

I have never had a bad experience in all the years coming to this office for various problems. A special thanks to Heather for being so nice when I was having injections. Everyone is so nice but Barbara is especially compassionate when making room when I was in terrible pain. So lucky to have chosen Dr. Melfi for my pain management.

– ES

I would like to say that Dr. Melfi and her staff are the best. They care about their patients and always very helpful. Thank you all for all your help with my care.

– RK

I have had many spinal injections/nerve blocks at other medical offices with very little relief, if any. Since becoming a patient of Dr. Melfi, the relief I have after receiving injections from her is absolutely amazing. She is always on the money! Highly recommend Dr. Melfi.

– JB

Dad was in so much pain and earliest available appointment wasn’t until 2+ weeks. Barbara called after we left and thankfully was able to get him in the next morning! Thank you for being so caring and compassionate!

– RC/ST

Everyone in the office are very caring and professional in all that they do. I am very confident and comfortable when I have an appointment.

– F.F.

I am personally delighted to tell you that your staff (particularly Barbara, because my encounters with her have been more frequent) is “first class” in kindness and over all conduct. I would be remiss if I didn’t include PA Rachel Bossi in my gratitude for her kindness.

– R.C.T.

I would like to start by saying my experience in this practice has been nothing but great. From the front desk, to the nursing staff, the PA, and Dr. Melfi herself have shown nothing but professionalism and excellent care. To me this shows great teamwork and pride in what this practice provides.

– T.C. Sr.

I have been a patient at Regenerative Spine & Musculoskeletal Medicine for the past 8 months. Medical appointments are usually not something any of us look forward to, but Dr. Melfi’s practice is different. After the first few visits, 5 of the staff knew me by name and always had a warm smile and warm greeting. Barb in particular works hard to accommodate my schedule with that of a busy practice. Dr. Melfi and her staff are sensitive to their patient’s time and almost always run on schedule. I feel that my concerns are addressed more than adequately in a caring manner. In a medical world where many practices seem so impersonal, it is so nice to have a specialist that make me feel like a person and not just a “condition” with a birth date and an insurance number.

– C.M.

I would like to thank Barb for all her continuous efforts to make sure I get all the medical help I need. Workmen’s Comp is by no means easy to navigate. Barb has been huge in getting things done in a timely fashion. I appreciate all her efforts. She’s the best !

– B.B.

I can’t say enough about the procedure that was done. No Pain – YEAH!

– J.G.

I, K.C., am very pleased from all my outcomes that Dr. Melfi and Rachel have done to help me in the last 6 years. Your staff has also made me very comfortable. All of you at RSM have the best bedside manner and are all warm hearted towards all your patients. You are all one in a million. The care and patience from you all means a whole lot coming from a patient that has been with you as long as I have. You have in more ways than one managed to help me so that I don’t need more back surgery. I would recommend any patient coming to RSM because of the way you care so much for your patients.

I also want to add the fact that everything you tried on me was a nervous feeling at first, but every treatment performed on me was a success. I have from day one as your patient have always been amazed at what you can do for others. I have nothing but the best of care from you and your staff. And your bedside manner is the best I have ever seen. That alone says you have a “Heart of Gold” when it comes to your patients and your patience and time go a long way knowing how busy you are. Your staff has all satisfied me. You all deserve a big round of applause.

Your ever thoughtful patient,

– K.C.

This office is efficient and the staff is kind and caring. Best of luck in keeping up with all the new advances in pain management.

– C.A.

In the past year and a half, Doctor Melfi and her entire staff have provided excellent care in my pain management. Before and after my three spine surgeries, they showed nothing but compassion, caring and understanding. They were willing to take the time to listen and “hear” what I was experiencing on my worst days.

I highly recommend this office.

A.L.

The office is always welcoming when I come in for my appointment. Barb has worked wonders in getting approval from the insurance especially when I had an emergency. My back pain was severe and Dr. Melfi saw me immediately and they got me into and MRI and the injection in days. My life and activity has changed since then for the last several years. They continue to meet all my medical needs. I would recommend this office, Dr. Melfi, the nurses, and the office staff to all with these medical issues. Thank you.

– H.G.

Heather oversaw me for the five weeks worth of injections and was amazing. She is kind, compassionate and cheerful. She also has an amazing talent of saying routine questions over and over like it’s the first time she’s ever asked. But above all was the attention she gave to each patient. She listened with kindness and encouragement to all of us complaining about our ailments and offering our medical histories. She makes each patient she comes into contact with feel like they matter. Because to Heather, each of them does.

– L.K.

Each session of acupuncture has reduced the numbness in my legs and feet. I gain more feeling with each treatment. It has reduced hip pain. My balance has improved as well. I have more confidence and I am able to resume activities that I haven’t been able to do in several months.

– J.V.

My name is Willis and I started seeing Dr. Melfi for my neck and shoulder injury. My shoulder was so painful that I literally would have to lay my arm across my chest to get out of bed. I was watching the doctors show when they had a specialist talking about how well his patients have recovered from PRP (platelet rich plasma) injections.

I happened to be in Dr. Melfi’s office when I read her brochure and noticed that she also performs PRP injections. I talked to Rachel Bossi, PA about this and felt it was something I wanted to try.

My only alternative other than the PRP was surgery for my shoulder. They informed that I had to personally pay for the PRP injection. I had the first injection and felt relief but still had pain in the shoulder. I would highly recommend PRP injections to anyone that has severe pain.

The cost to pay for the injection is well worth the pain relief. I highly recommend Dr. Melfi. The pain relief I have from my shoulder pain from the platelet rich plasma therapy is truly the best treatment I received from any of my joint injuries.

– W.K.

Dr. Melfi is amazing. I never would have thought that it(acupuncture) really works but it has had better than expected results for me. Simply amazing.

– CL

I had a nerve ablation yesterday. It was nearly painless and I feel great today! These are not typical results from what I understand so I am very pleased!!

– DL

Many thanks to Dr. Melfi and staff. My pain is less now than it was before I had the epidural injection. I am pleased that the procedure does help me and I am better.

– O.P.

I am 73 years old and have had progressive back problems for several years. My primary doctor described my arthritic back condition as a “mess “. He suggested seeing Dr Melfi with hopes that she could help me deal with the pain through her alternative treatments. I was skeptical but was impressed by her knowledge and first hand experience being a patient for Regenerative Medicine. After a few months of testing and treatments the results have been truly amazing. I walk without a cane and my posture is much more erect. I can sleep in bed and have virtually little to no pain. I really can’t believe it. I would highly recommend Dr. Melfi and her caring staff.

– C.G.

Professional, caring staff knowledgeable in traditional and alternative medicine. I would highly recommend this practice.

– V.B.

Since 2005 Dr. Renée Melfi has coordinated an intensive treatment plan for the disabling conditions of my fractured neck sustained during sever domestic violence. I think their accurate diagnoses are only matched by their sincere interest in me and how I am best able to manage chronic pain. I thoroughly enjoy the opportunities they provide for me to learn about my own mind/body connection and how I can build on my capabilities despite my challenges.

– A.T.

Very punctual and very pleasant. I am a repeat patient and I am back because of a positive outcome several years ago.

– D.

Dr. Melfi and all her staff are very caring and treat me as someone special each visit. My back is feeling much better, and I am now here for my neck. Dr. Melfi explained the problem and solutions very clearly.

– I.C.

Appts are always on time. Staff goes above and beyond necessity to help your comfort.

– D.M.

After 8 months with a different location and 7 visits for a total of 45 minutes of doctor time. 1st visit @ RSM was an hour long, addressing all of my questions, comments, concerns.

– M.S.

I love Dr. Melfi because she not a fan of pharmaceuticals. She gives us natural options.

My name is Betsy and as a new pt. of Dr. Melfi I would like to thank her and her staff for making me feel so comfortable and at ease during my procedures. This is the first time that I’ve ever felt this way before. I have had these procedures done at other offices and they were never as well done as they were at Dr. Melfi’s MD office.

The staff was so very helpful in getting me in to see Dr. Melfi along with her compassionate understanding of my need for a Rx for my lidoderm patches even though I had not been here for some time. Even though I need an appointment first, she was so sweet about it all.

Dr. Melfi is a very professional, skilled physician with a great bedside manner. I would recommend her to anyone who is suffering from back pain. The lumbar epidural injection was quick and as enjoyable as it could have been. The staff and Dr. Melfi made me feel very comfortable and have exponentially relieved my pain.
