Patient Reviews
Jan 24, 2023
I was a patient of Dr. Stephen Merriam's for many years, I am 57 and due to complications from an auto accident, I came into contact with him. He is very proficient in his field, which he mainly deals with children's eye issues. I found him to be very patient, would answer all my questions, and above all else caring. I ended up having two surgeries from him, and each time he was very informative of the procedure and the expectations. I would recommend Dr. Stephen Merriam for your eye needs.
