Merik Gross, MD

Dr Merik Gross is a wonderful and thorough doctor. I followed her from UCSFto CPMC on Sutter, however today I called for an appointment and she has left the practice. Does anyone know where Dr Gross is?

My husband and I both signed up for Dr Gross as our primary care physician when we moved to SF. Like Cody W, I have never felt rushed and am very impressed with her skill as a diagnostician. When i had had to have emergency surgery, she called the ER I went to, fast-​tracking my admission. She’s soft-​spoken and has a very sympathetic listening style. The specialists she’s recommended me to have all been great. I signed up for the online patient management site and she is as responsive as doctors can be in email — she is really good, though, about refilling a prescription when I need it, and when I’ve needed to, she’s been able to fit me in on the same day, which is really commendable. I am pretty impressed with the whole practice and was also satisfied with a doc covering for her around the holidays. All in all, great experience with Merik Gross!

Unilocal doesn’t seem to be the best forum to find doctor reviews (as I’m finding out through helping my special man friend locate a male doctor in SF); however, I’m shocked no one has said a word about Dr. Gross. She is simply awesome!
Each appt is a smooth process. Receptionists are hit or miss, but once you’re in the offices, which are both clean and new, you’re instantly catered to by Dr. Gross – she is thorough and leaves no questions unanswered. I’ve been going to her since moving to the city over a year ago. Just had my annual, which was as un-​awkward as those can go and she made sure to send me to the lab for bloodwork (located in the same complex!) just to make sure I’m in tip top shape. She even tested me for Vitamin D deficiency because of some random signs and was spot on – who ever checks that?!
My appointment had to of lasted nearly 45 minutes and in the end, I had 2 prescriptions electronically sent to the Walgreens near my apartment to pick-​up immediately as well as a dermatologist recommendation to double-​check risk of Malignant Melanoma (again, she is THOROUGH). The coolest thing is that Dr. Gross keeps all records in an online health system that offers personalized user profiles. I was able to login a couple days later to check lab results and see her personal comments– I can email her at any time and she is quick to reply to phone calls directly.
Really can’t find someone in the medical profession much better than Dr. Gross. Good bedside manner, attentive/​thorough, easily accessible, and clearly smart/​personable. I’ve already referred 3 friends to see her! (Sutter Health took my previous insurance, UnitedHealth, as well as current, CIGNA)
