About The Provider

Melanie Davidson, MD cares for patients with coronary artery disease, cardiomyopathy, arterial fibrillation and more. She offers a full range of care, including consultations, stress testing, heart catheterization, pacemakers and transesophageal echocardiogram.

She completed a residency in internal medicine at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles and a cardiology fellowship at East Tennessee State University in Johnson City.

Board-certified by the American Board of Internal Medicine in cardiovascular disease and internal medicine, Dr. Davidson is also a fellow of the American College of Cardiology.

    Dr. Davidson is great she takes the time to listen to my questions and answers them. Dr D is the fourth cardiologist that I've seen and I feel she is more knowledgeable than all the others combined. I truly appreciate her.

    Dr. Davidson said, entered the room where I was waiting with a smile on her face. She looked happy and I was glad to see her. She sat next to me and asked me how I was doing just like an old friend.

    I like Dr. Davidson, but I wish she was more involved with her patients. She gets you in and out quickly, but I don't have any real personal connection with her.
