Carla Merrick was very informative and understanding of my problem. A problem I had NEVER had before. The advice she gave me for the pain is greatly appreciated. The drugs she prescribed and to use a heating pad for a short (20 minutes or less) time & not to use ice packs was very valuable.

Dr. Merrick is one of my favorite providers I have ever had. She is the first care provider I've had that has made me feel like I am being listened to and she definitely made me feel like she cares about my issues. My digestive health has been a major cause of frustration for the past 8 years of my life, and Dr. Merrick is the first doctor that has made me feel like she really wants to help me get things figured out.
