The new patient paperwork was a little ridiculous. I was called back to the exam room pretty quickly and the Dr also came into see me quickly as well. He was very nice but I just wish I had a little bit more time to go through all of the pain that I had been experiencing for so many years.

Dr Merriman is awesome! He repaired my back after a fracture.

Doc seems to know what he wants to know when he comes in. Certainly did not give me time to answer the questions he asked. I'd get a few words out and he was on to the next question. Perhaps I'm just too slow. Still, I like to have the opportunity to explain.
He did, at least, have an idea on managing chronic pain that I'd not heard ... so maybe that's good. Guess we'll see. So if you like a doc that visits with you ... this ain't your doc.

Pleasant and professional from start to finish.
February 5, 2022Tony P.Verified patient
The staff listened to my concerns and helped develop a treatment plan that works with the plans from my other doctors. Would highly recommend.
