Dr. Suzanne Merkle, M.D., FAAD, is a board-certified dermatologist and fellow of the American Academy of Dermatology. With over 28 years of clinical experience, she joined Associated Dermatologists in 1996 and is available at our West Bloomfield location. Dr. Merkle has been voted among the "Top DOCS" in Hour Magazine for many years.
Earning a Bachelor of Science from the University of Michigan, Dr. Merkle subsequently graduated from the University of Michigan Medical School. She went on to complete an Internal Medicine internship at William Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak and her residency in dermatology at Henry Ford Hospital in Detroit. Dr. Merkle is also currently on staff at William Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak and Huron Valley-Sinai Hospital, where she does consults and instructs resident physicians.
Her focuses are in adult and pediatric medical and surgical dermatology including skin cancer treatment. She has extensive training and experience in cosmetic dermatology and has a passion for improving the aging face.
She uses Botox®, Dysport®, and Jeuveau® for fine lines and wrinkles and for hyperhidrosis (excessive sweating). She takes pride in contouring and adding volume to the face and hands using both the Allergan and Galderma products, including the Juvaderm® and Restylane® lines of fillers. She uses Kybella® to reduce fat pockets, including the “double chin.” Repairing split/stretched earlobes is another special interest of Dr. Merkle. She also dedicates time to creating a skin care regimen to suit an individual’s needs.
Outside of her practice, Dr. Merkle volunteers at the Gary Burnstein Clinic in Pontiac. She resides in Bloomfield Township with her husband Alan Silverman, a cardiologist, and has three adult children and a dog, Bentley.
"Diagnosing and treating patients is my professional heartbeat, and I strive to deliver high-quality care with compassion and close attention to detail. With a strong academic background and almost three decades of experience, I've cultivated not just skin expertise in medical dermatology and aesthetics, but a commitment to building enduring relationships with my patients."

She always leaves me feeling me confident and educated when I leave.
My only concern is the wait to see Dr Merkle when in the exam room. This time I only had to wait 25 minutes. Other than that Dr Merkle is wonderful and is an expert on all skin issues
She is wonderful
Excellent
My first basal cell carcinoma was diagnosed 45 years ago. I've been visiting Dr. Merkel for over 20 years, they don't come any better!
Very thorough!
Dr. Merkel is absolutely amazing! I have been her patient now 4 going on 5 years. She is incredibly thorough, proactive, and always goes above and beyond to do as much as possible in a single visit for the patient's convenience. I never feel rushed, and I appreciate how efficient she is with my time. On top of that, the entire clinic staff is always friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. I highly recommend this practice to anyone looking for top-notch dermatological care!
