Dr Tyler Merrill has been a blessing to me. I couldn't ask for better care and concern. I'm very grateful that he returned to Arkansas. I'm just not positive my outcome would have been as perfect. I refer him every opportunity I have and so does my husband!

He stated he would get a sample but I'm glad he didn't. He didn't read any of the paperwork I had brought ..no copies made or anything?! Then he was so quick to end the exam quicker than I had thought. I had diagnoses that has disappeared and many notes from the VA that have all resolved itself like old granulomas lung disease, asthma and allergies and much more. I mentioned about hurtle cells present but not much explanation was given why I have these and nothing is being done by the VA.
