Weight Loss Testimonials

“From the very first email I sent to his office, to this very day, everyone has been absolutely amazing. They answer all questions promptly and they truly care about their patients…On September 3, 2019 I had my surgery and I am so glad I did. I feel amazing, my knees do not bother me like they did. I can exercise without feeling like I am dying and I have so much more confidence. I recommend Dr. Merriman to anyone looking for help with their weight.”

“Having gastric sleeve surgery is the best decision I have made for myself. After 6 months, I have lost 55lbs and I feel the best I have in years. I no longer have back or joint pain and I am free of acid reflux. I wish I would have done this many years ago. Now, the sky is the limit for me!”

“My weight loss journey has been such a blessing and I can't thank Dr, Merriman and his staff enough! I was always tired, a diabetic, and suffering from joint pain all the time. After the surgery and the initial recovery, it was amazing to see a new level of energy as the weight started dropping off! I was no longer having to take any meds for my diabetes, and I was starting to finally feel what it meant to be healthy. The most amazing part is that I figured out that I am a runner! As the weight dropped, I decided to push myself and little by little learned that running was going to be a big part of how I maintain what Dr. Merriman and the surgery did for me. Several 5's, 10k's, half marathons, and 2 full marathons later, I still have trouble believe this amazing journey is real and happened to me! I can't thank Dr. M and his staff enough!”
