Dr. George Merritt, DPM

While Merritt (I no longer use Dr.) may be thoughtful and kind, his skills are grossly Aantiquated. He performed unnecessarily aggressive procedures on more than one type and other parts of my foot. I've learned he did not need to completely remove joints from two toes.He assumed me I would be fine for a 16 day, once in a lifetime trip that was planned 5 months after surgery (jan 2024). It's now 14 months and I'm in constant pain. I'm on day 2 of that trip and am absolutely miserable. He ruined this trip and possibly my foot for life!! RUN to the other side of Tallahassee to get modern and correct help. Other doctors are returned by the condition he has left me in.

Been going to Dr. Merritt for over 40 years. In my opinion he’s the best in the business. Great bedside manner.

Dr. Merritt has a kind soul. He explains in detail what the procedure will entail beforehand. He recently removed bone spurs from my toes. Stitches are not scheduled to be removed for another 2 weeks, but I am hopeful that once I’ve completely healed, I won’t have any more pain. The only downside of being able to see Dr. Merritt is the time spent in the waiting room. It’s been over an hour both times for my last 2 appointments. I have to miss work to go to a scheduled appointment and don’t have the time or patience for that.

He spends his sweet time with each patient, explaining why things are the way they are, why they hurt like they do, and how he intends to help you best he can. He is what is RIGHT about medicine, unlike other practitioners who spend two minutes with you, primarily explaining nothing but how they're going to cut you open and pull CA$H our of your bodily injury.

I been using him for the past 25 yrs. He is the best.

Great. Doctor helped me with many issues... all fixed now... great bedside man I'm very personable.

Dr Merritt is a very gentle, kind, and compassionate doctor. He performed hammer toe corrective surgery & athrodesis on both of my feet between mid-Sept and Dec 29th last year. He's listened and responded to any & all concerns I've brought to his attention & has done so in layman's terms, instantly eliminating my worries...I highly recommend Dr Merritt!

Dr. Merritt worked me in quickly, as I was dealing with gout pain. I had never received a cortisone injection and DO NOT like needles. He did a fantastic job and it was an instant relief. Thank you so much!!

Dr Merritt gave me injections for plantar fasciitis almost 15 years ago. Fixed - never had a recurrence. Thank you Dr. Merritt.

I HAD ISSUES W/FOOT PAIN GOT NUMEROUS INJECTIONS W/VIRTUALLY NO PAIN GIVING THE SHOT AND THEN OPTED FOR SURGERY. EVERYTHING WENT WELL AND HAS BEEN GREAT EVER SINCE

Dr. Merritt is a great guy. Have been seeing him for many yrs. Always listens to my concerns and gives great advice on what needs to be done. Even calls the night after a surgery to ask how I’m doing. Have never had another doctor do that.

Merit messed up my feet so bad that I am needing to go to a different doctor. The average 3 hour wait for his appointment is not worth it. He schedules people every 15 minutes and never is on time. Now my hammer toes are worse than ever but I refuse to go and wait for him again. If you want quality work on your feet and a doctor that cares about your time, do not go to Merritt.

Dr. Merritt treated my Dad wonderfully. Helped him with his foot issues.

My first visit with Dr Merritt and it was a wonderful experience. Very knowledgeable doctor, great staff, and quick service. I highly recommend him!

My visit was very pleasant, especially with Dr. Merritt. He made me feel soooo comfortable and he finished in minutes.

Dr. Merritt is the best! He takes his time with each patient so expect a wait! He has never hurt with removing ingrown toenails and he even calls you himself to check on you after your appointment - The Best!!!

3 hour wait. Appointment was scheduled at 2, got in at 5

Dr. Merritt is absolutely the best! So calm, kind, and just plain nice.

I waited to come back home from California so Dr. Merritt could fix my foot that was done by another physician. My family and I trust him completely. He also explains procedures in lay terms so that you know what he is going to do.

Long wait, poor scheduling . Attended appointment with my 90 year old step mother
