Patient Reviews

Oct 08, 2021

Dr. Merker was attentive and responsive. In fact, he saved my life! Yes! he listened carefully, took time with me, kept track of me. It turned out that I had a life-threatening blockage to my heart. - prior to seeing Dr Merker, a top NY cardiologist sent me home.. ( I guess he wasn’t yet aware that heart problems present differently in women than men; and merely attributed my symptoms to psychological distress) it’s a miracle that I found Dr. Merker. He is worth waiting for. He literally saved my life.
