About Me

Outside of the clinic, I enjoy DIY projects, especially furniture restoration and repurposing, yardwork as well as spending time with my family and daughter and supporting them in their various activities. 

Care Philosophy

I believe in empowering patients through education and collaboration to achieve their optimal health goals.
My focus is on listening and providing evidence-based up-to-date medical recommendations that maximize health and align with each person’s individual goals, then proceeding with a treatment plan that each individual feels comfortable with and prepared to initiate. 

Areas of Interest

Preventative care and evidence-based medicine for the whole family unit. I have a special interest in pediatrics and have a background in pediatric critical care and emergency medicine. I enjoy treating whole family units and have been a practicing provider for over 15 years. I am passionate about promoting women's health and treating chronic disease such as diabetes, hypertension, weight management and hyperlipidemia.

I met Mellisa for the first time right after Dr Yocum retired. Went there to get handicap paperwork filled out ; Melisa looked at my records and immediately started advising my next appointment to insure I received care and scripts with out lapse . This is when I decided I found my PCP . THANkYOU for making me feel well cared for . Again Thank You

The entire staff at Platte City Medical Office were very friendly and greeted us with a smile. Melissa was very thorough and listened to my concerns. She wrote down the items she wanted me to try. Very happy with the entire staff.

Melissa Stein is a very compassionate and extremely competent medical professional. I appreciate that she took into account my feelings/frustrations/concerns not just my illness/symptoms when providing her medical advice and treatment options. Exactly the type of person I want as my primary care provider.
