Getting to know Merlyn Clarke
With over four decades of nursing experience, I bring expertise to family medicine and psychiatry. Holding a Doctor of Nursing Practice and multiple advanced practice degrees, Dr. Clarke has served in Guyana, the UK, and the US, enriching her global perspective on healthcare. I practice independently, offering in-person and online consultations to provide accessible, high-quality care. My clinical expertise covers a wide range of conditions, including mental health disorders, chronic illnesses, and primary care concerns. My ability to evaluate, diagnose, and manage patients across their lifespans and my commitment to education ensure that individuals receive the guidance they need to achieve optimal health. I also facilitate specialist referrals when necessary, providing comprehensive patient care. Having earned my master's in Family Nurse Practitioner, a doctoral degree from Georgia State University, and a postdoctoral specialization in psychiatric mental health, I hold dual board certification as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner and Family Nurse Practitioner. I am licensed to provide expert care in multiple states, including Georgia, New York, New Mexico, New Hampshire, Delaware, Kentucky, Connecticut, Oklahoma, Colorado, and Florida. I am a passionate advocate for patient education and believe in empowering individuals with the knowledge to make informed health decisions. Whether through telemedicine or in-person consultations, I remain dedicated to providing compassionate, evidence-based care that transforms lives.

More information on payments and coverage
Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
