Patient Reviews
Jul 20, 2024
Dr. Merrick did what is the most important thing a Doctor can do and that is to Listen to his patient. Dr Merrick took the time to listen and to have my wife fully explain her issues. Based on her input and his through examination, he formulated a plan of action that included blood work and breathing stress tests.He is very friendly, very respectful and very attentive. He has a wealth of knowledge that he imparts in layman's terms so his patients can understand what his diagnosis is and what the plan will be going forward.My wife is so very thankful that she got to meet him, be treated by him and she highly recommends him. As do I.
