Takes time with his patients
Dr. Merrioam’s staff sent in incorrect lab orders for me, and the doctor didn’t take the time to review the results before nor during the appointment. He ordered new lab work that included work already done. He suggested I come back for a follow-up in six months, but when I pointed out that I was accustomed to coming in only once a year, he agreed it wasn’t necessary, and arranged for me to come in in one year. He thought one of my medications was taken by hypodermic, but it is administered topically. His staff ordered a dose of this medication the previous year that was double what it should have been, but luckily, the pharmacist caught the problem. On the plus side, his bedside manner was excellent, and his staff were efficient.
Great dr
He goes by the numbers and lays out a path forward with alternatives. As an engineer, I get that.
He ois very personable and explains everything he sees during the exam. Recpommends several alternative solutions to problems
Friendly and explained everything
Very knowledgeable and professional
Tremendous care, tremendous listener, covered all the bases with my medication and my symptoms. I’m on Tamusolin for urination and it’s under control fortunately and drinking a lot of water helps and I haven’t had a urinary track infection so that is wonderful news and my PSA tests were great about 1.4 so it’s all critical stuff and I encourage everyone to look out further prostates of the male species . Thank you. Tim
Fantastic penile exam!
