About
At Solstice Health & Wellness, Dr. Frank Melo delivers integrative addiction medicine and primary care in Sarasota, Florida. He founded the practice in February 2019 with a clear goal: to build outpatient addiction care around the whole person. The practice operates on the medical home model, coordinating evidence-based care across medical, mental health, and substance use needs in one setting.
Dr. Melo structures care around four pillars: health, home, purpose, and community. Treatment plans factor in nutrition, exercise, sleep, relationships, and daily activities. The practice serves adults through an affordable monthly membership and offers both in-person visits and telehealth across Florida. Members reach the care team by phone, text, and email. Same-day and next-day appointments keep access close at hand.
