Kind. Thorough. Very straight to the point. I felt confident leaving his office with a treatment plan and a way forward. Discussed additional testing and when to have it done. Left with samples of meds, directions, lab work request, and other testing request. Only con was he was rushed for my first visit but I figured it would be considering how many patients were in his waiting room.

Thorough and no-nonsense. I can tell he took the time to think through my concerns and understood the many parts of blood health.
I live in DC so driving to Waldorf for any reason is crazy but the doctor and staff are great and they took good care of me. I probably would’ve ended up in the hospital if he didn’t treat me.
Great doctor!

You sign in at the front desk and the wait is not long at least 15 mins or less. The nurse are very friendly, always helpful and the doctor the best one I have ever had. He listens to any problems I may have and he take care of it. The Cancer & Blood Treatment Center staff all work as a team and help each other to make this a nice place to come.
I've been a patient of Dr. Meelu's since 2005. When he treated me for colon cancer I have remained under his care since then and am doing well. His office & clinic are clean and well maintained. His nurses and staff are most friendly and accomodating. Your appointment time is the time you are seen which is most important for me.
I credit the staff at this office for saving my life. The doc is the best. I feel like the staff are friends of mine, & all take great care of me. I love them all!
The doctor and staff are always very caring. They answer all my questions and make me feel better just by listening to me. I would recommend this office to everyone.
I had a great time.
Who could ask for a better team taking care of you. This is my second go around with Non Hodgkins Lymphoma. The first tim I had a wonderful go around at U of MD. I was a little afraid of not being at one of the larger hospitals, but Cancer & Blood Disorders Treatment Center are an amazing group of people.
