Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Merrill saved my husbands life a few times. He had a pacemaker stints quadruple bypass and did 2 ablations on him. His heart has been in rhythm for 3 years and he's doing great. Dr Merrill is bet compassionate and great Dr. Would advise anyone needing a heart Dr to see him. Which we have.
