Patient Reviews
Jul 12, 2019
I had a fracture of my elbow after falling off my bicycle in San Francisco, and was highly anxious about functionality since I am left-handed. Patty Rose PA and Dr. Merk are the utmost professional team. 6 screws and a plate later, doing fantastic! NM PT was amazing also and highly recommend Swati Patel. Thanks for taking on my case and enabling me to get back to full functionality!
