OMG! I'm so saddened to learn of Dr. Melling's passing! He treated me as an adult for my orthodontic needs and had the most warm and engaging practice and team of caregivers. He was as gracious and kind as he was a gifted practitioner. It is such a loss to this area of practice as well as to the countless people he treated; with the gift of a bright and beautiful smile. I loved going to see him, particularly the day I got my braces removed! Everyone who worked there loved him and you could...

Dr Melling was a wonderful man. My heart hurts to think of how much his family is missing him. He was kind, gentle and had a way that put people immediately at ease. A special soul who is gone too soon.

We are so very sorry to hear this news. Dr. Melling was such a big part of our life during the "braces years"! I hope his family takes comfort in knowing what a nice man he was and how much his patients respected and appreciated him.
