Meriden Terry MD Sc Office

I have been Dr. Meriden’s patient since 2002. I saw him at a very difficult time in my life and needed a doctor to step in and be zealous to search for a diagnosis. I had seen a number of doctors for my condition, tinnitus, none of whom I felt took it seriously, in part because there is no known cause or treatment. Dr. Meriden conducted appropriate testing and made the necessary referrals. He searched and consulted with experts to find a treatment that at least minimized its debilitating effects. Fast forward a few years later, I was diagnosed with an ascending thoracic aneurysm during a routine test. This condition is considered a silent killer because it has no known symptoms. Dr. Meriden treats me for this condition and makes sure that my blood pressure remains within a safe range. I don’t say this lightly, but I can credit him with extending my life. He has also been extremely patient with me, as I have not been as compliant as I should be. Not all patients appreciate the skill of their doctor, but I am one who definitely appreciates this one. He knows me better than I know myself. He is zealous, and that’s what I want. I have no hesitation recommending him. In addition to all else, this doctor has been in the same area for over 30 years. How often do you see that in today’s transient medical community?

I went from endocrinologist to endocrinologist searching for one as kind and as gentle as Dr. Meriden. He is very knowledgable in his field, and has truly worked with me to help me with my diabetes. He was recommended to me by a friend whose life was turned around because of Dr. Meriden’s help. Dr. Meriden has excellent manners, never rushes our appointments, I barely wait in the waiting room for a long time, and he is covered by many insurances. His staff is nice and gentle as well, and my experiences with him have been impeccable. I highly recommend him, and if the world needed just one endocrinologist, it would be him.

This man I believe has saved my mothers life. His office staff are very kind and caring; he is a great endocrinologist. A lot of physicians will tell a patient to lose weight but he has helped give her the tools to actually do that and is always very encouraging. Even his billing practices show kindness, as he has worked with her crappy insurance plan and offers discounts for paying off the balance at the end of the year. He knew right away that she needed to be on an insulin pump and doesn’t shy away from picking up the phone to actually talk to patients, as opposed to going through a nurse all the time. Not sure about the last review but in our experience, I wouldn’t want her to see someone else.

Dr. Meriden is pompous and does not take patient concerns seriously. He is the doctor, after all, and you only live in your body, which gives you zero credibility. I would not recommend him to my worst enemy.
