Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Merz?
Dr. Merz genuinely cares about the patient and wants to offer options. He however is very realistic about what outcome to expect and the risks. He is very adamant about physical therapy being the core of treatment and that pain management is done to make physical therapy goals easier to achieve. I feel comfortable recommending him. I would like him to spend more time reviewing the files and considering additional diagnostics as I don't feel they are certain about the cause of my pain. I will suggest this on next visit.

I would recommend highly to anyone that wants a excellent doctor that can talk in terms that a lay person can understand. He takes his time and picks the best way to treat your condition. He cares about you as a person. He is a breath of fresh air to the medical profession.
