Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very compassionate, provides comprehensive care
Dr. Merrill is an excellent doctor that worked with me through my complex illness, providing compassionate and comprehensive care. He asked me very thoughtful questions before making any recommendations and took time with me to discuss my options. He ensured that I understood what was going on with my health and helped me find options that worked best for me. He also talked to me about simple things that I could do at home to positively impact my healing and things that I should not do that could have negative impacts to my healing. I am grateful for his thoughtful approach and the wealth of experience that he brought into the care he provided to me.

This site does not allow a patient to post their true feelings. I am thankful that Dr. Merrill is no longer practicing or accepting patients. He is a storehouse of knowledge however that wealth of information is lost during the guidelines placed in patient care
