Dr Merritt is a great Dr to have. She listened to my concerns and I participated with my plan of care. She is very knowledgeable and keeps up with advancements in her field. The only negative I can think of was that she would not let my husband and I to be in the room together. We are elderly and I am on oxygen. My husband takes care of me. We are both patients there. We both can be forgetful and it helps if we can see the Dr together.
