"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a truly positive experience at Melomed Claremont. The staff are caring, supportive and professional! A special thank you to Dr Fortuin and Dr Jerome. They truly saved my life and their care and dedication mean more than words can express. Shariefa Goliath, the Occupational Therapist, ran informative sessions and created a safe, comfortable space for everyone. Thank you to Sister Barbara and Mr Mbethe for always checking in on patients, and to the wonderful kitchen staff, Vina, Tanil and Marose, for their kindness and care. The facility is clean and welcoming, and the nurses are doing a fantastic job. My only suggestion would be clearer group rules to encourage mutual respect among patients and staff. I am deeply grateful for the support I received here. 🧡"
