Patient Reviews
Nov 01, 2024
I was very impressed with Dr. Merritt and her staff. I had to have surgery for a blocked tear duct and it was the easiest surgery I have ever had done. I visited her office and was told about the procedure. She scheduled the surgery. I went to the surgery center at the appointed time and from the time I checked in, signed all necessary paper work, and got prepped for surgery it only took about 20 minutes. She did the surgery and I was on my way home. Everything went so smoothly I was in awe of her and her staff's efficiency. She is a great doctor!! Highly recommend her!!!
