She didn't seem open to investigating farther for other things that could cause my daughter's symptoms. She was stuck on one particular thing because of family history and told us we wouldn't need to come back if her blood tests were negative. She seemed annoyed.

I've been seeing Dr. Mercer for years (Since I was a child) and she has yet to make any attempt to help treat my symptoms. If my labs look correct, she does not care that I am still suffering.

Dr. Mercer was wonderful! She made things easy to understand for our daughter and for us as parents, included our daughter in the conversation, answered all of our questions and had clearly reviewed information sent by our pediatrician ahead of time. We left feeling well informed and confident in the plan moving forward. Will highly recommend Dr Mercer!
