BEST DOCTOR EVER!!!!
Dr. Merkel is always very helpful and he listens!!
We was there the first time, and he took a look of my child, but when I handed him the medical record from our previous doctor, he looked at the first page, the refusal of vaccines, and he literally told us: I don’t take unvaccinated children, good luck” And he left the room. It was the most rude , disrespectful , humiliating and discriminatory behavior a I have ever experienced from a “doctor”, who supposed to swore up for treating and healing children, not vaccinating them !!!!
Best ever!
Very thorough and to the point. Always satisfied after appointments.
Dr. MARKEL is an excellent physician and person. Period, full stop
