For patients’ convenience, the new office in Beverly Hills will offer a wide range of services including telemedicine and TeleVideo appointments in a HIPAA-compliant, secure fashion.
After 17.5 years in Marina Del Rey, CA, internationally renowned board-certified Orthopedic Spine Surgeon Hooman M. Melamed, M.D. FAAOS has opened a new practice in the heart of Beverly Hills in the city’s renowned “Triangle” where Wilshire Blvd, Linden Dr. and Santa Monica Blvd. converge.
For patients’ convenience, the new office will offer a wide range of services including telemedicine and TeleVideo appointments in a HIPAA-compliant, secure fashion.
“As the pandemic taught us, the course of medicine has adapted to new technology that allows patients to keep their appointments without having to leave the comfort of their own homes or any other convenient location,” he adds.
Melamed has developed an excellent reputation for delivering the most optimum and highest level of patient care in the field of orthopedics by emphasizing a concierge, holistic, integrative and non-narcotic approach that places special emphasis on the patients' lifestyle, gut health and overall health, not just the spine. Patients benefit from this state-of-the-art form of care set in a contemporary environment designed to create a sense of serenity for his patients.
Melamed eschews aggressive fusion and implant surgeries when nonsurgical, more conservative methods can be just as effective. Among the least invasive methods he employs are the Biportal endoscopic spine surgery and micro decompression options. In fact, he was the first one in the country to utilize the Biportal endoscopic technique in 2019 -- an approach that allows patients to avoid fusion and artificial disc surgeries.
“Because too many surgeons are willing to take on complex procedures that they are not experienced to perform, one-third of my patient are those in need of corrective surgery to repair botched jobs,” says Melamed.
Dr. Melamed has become a “go to” expert on news and information programs including Fox News, The Doctors, Dr. Oz, LA Times, Daily Mail and local TV, which, in turn, has attracted patients from all over the world including Asia, the Middle, Eastern Europe, South America and Canada.
