20 Star Rating

If I could give Dr. Merkow and his staff a 20 star rating I would. Kind, patient, efficient, thorough, and always available to help. I was in need of a lumbar fusion, scared and not sure – I knew after meeting Dr. Merkow that I was in the right hands. He gave me my life back. I cannot thank him and his staff enough. Taylor his PA is great, I highly recommend them all. Thank you a thousand times.

comprehensive, compassionate, and elite care

Dr Merkow and his team offer comprehensive, compassionate, and elite care. I have had two separate surgeries (neck and lumbar) both performed by Dr Merkow. My results post surgery truly exceeded all my expectations! Dr Merkow is in a league all his own.
