“I came away feeling that Melissa Sussman was thoughtful, engaged, and genuinely methodical. My medical history is complicated, and most of the time it feels like bringing it up is either pointless—because it becomes the only thing a doctor fixates on—or it gets dismissed entirely. With her, I didn’t get either of those extremes. She seemed to take my past seriously without letting it overshadow her own judgment, and she approached the present with a clear, grounded analysis. It felt balanced in a way I’m not used to.”

About Dr. Melissa Sussman

I am a Board-Certified Family Medicine physician with a special interest in Lifestyle and Integrative Medicine. I strive to understand each patient’s life beyond their health history, so we can create personalized care plans that fit seamlessly into their daily routines. I earned my medical degree from Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine and hold a Master of Public Health from the CUNY School of Public Health. During medical school, I worked on The Dr. Oz Show, covering COVID-19 and other medical and public health topics. I also have a background in the arts, with a BFA from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, which has shaped my approach to communication and connection in medicine. How I stay healthy and happy Outside of work, I enjoy theater (both as an audience member and writer), exploring the city, learning new things, farmers markets and cheering on the New York Mets.
