Dr. Jeffrey Melini DMD Introduce
Welcome to the pediatric dental practice of Dr. Jeffrey Melini DMD, located within Pediatric Associates of Glen Mills at 1020 Baltimore Pike #350 in Glen Mills, Pennsylvania. You can reach us at (610) 358-3900 or +1 610-358-3900. We aim to provide specialized dental care for children in a welcoming environment.
Patient reviews for Dr. Jeffrey Melini DMD present a somewhat mixed perspective. On the positive side, one parent of three boys highly recommends Dr. Melini and his staff. They describe the staff as "amazing from the appointment being made to check out." They particularly commend Dr. Melini's patient and calm approach, especially with a child who is typically not calm, and note that their children actually look forward to their appointments, highlighting the "EXCELLENT experience we consistently have." The reviewer also mentions a "Fun atmosphere" that contributes to this positive perception.
However, another parent shares a significantly negative experience. While they initially appreciated the "Fun atmosphere" and "friendly staff," and noted that their children looked forward to visits, several issues arose. They were told their 11 and 8-year-old children needed laughing gas for fillings, along with purchasing masks for future use, which they found odd given the children's previous positive experiences with fillings without sedation. A major concern arose months later when they received a nearly $1000 bill due to the office not accepting their specific insurance plan, despite initially running insurance. The office's insurance specialist reportedly admitted it was her fault but offered no resolution other than demanding full payment for cleanings. This led the family to leave the practice, with the reviewer expressing concerns about potentially unnecessary medication and unfair billing practices due to the office's error. They conclude that while the facility is nice, "good and honest dental care is most important" and suggest exploring other pediatric dentists in the area.
Based on these reviews, local users in Glen Mills considering Dr. Jeffrey Melini DMD for their children's dental care should be aware of both the positive feedback regarding the friendly staff and engaging atmosphere, as well as the serious concerns raised about treatment recommendations and billing practices, particularly regarding insurance verification. It may be prudent to thoroughly verify insurance coverage and discuss treatment plans in detail before proceeding with care at this Dental Clinic.

Dr. Jeffrey Melini DMD Reviews
We have been going to Chester County Denistry for Children for many years and until recently didn't have issues. Overall, the staff is amazing, however when it comes to Dr. Melini, I've determined that the all of our positive experiences were because my older child is very cooperative and easy going. We've had several occurrences (x-rays, and cavity fills) where my younger child has been exceedingly anxious and nervous about the process (he is a generally anxious child in unfamiliar situations). He has been challenging where he refuses treatment or turns his head. As a PEDIATRIC dentist, I would have expected more patience, communication, and understanding. Instead, Dr. Melini became very frustrated and borderline hostile. Unfortunately this is no longer a practice I can send my kids.
Feb 01, 2017 · Ali SteinmanWe've been seeing Dr. Jeff for 14 years. We can't say enough great things about him and his staff. Everyone is always friendly and helpful. Dr. Jeff takes a genuine interest in the overall health and appearance of the kids teeth. Kids never have a problem going even if for a cavity. He also helped us navigate our way through braces. If you're looking for a dentist you won't need to look further than Dr. Jeff. We've referred many friends and they would all say great things about him.
