    I really enjoy my visits with Morgan! Very pleasant and knowledgeable, she takes her time and answers all of my questions.

    Morgan Merchand (sp) is always kind, friendly, shows true concern for my health, talks through symptoms and possible treatment, takes me at my word for my pan and symptoms (which is not always the case for someone battling chronic pain and a slew of random symptoms) and asks my opinion on treatment options and outcomes.

    Dr Merchand is a very good physician. She is very informative and answers all my questions.
  • October 18, 2025
    Both the provider and I decided beforehand to not have any follow-up visits. For the next 3 years, I was told, I would be on 'stand by' and could ask to see her again without having to register as a new patient. That was encouraging.
  • October 6, 2025
    Morgan always rates an "excellent".
  • October 1, 2025
    She was very clear with what follow-up I should undertake. Also, very clear in making medical concepts understandable. Her communication skill in the exam room were much appreciated.
