Timmothy O Merrigan, MD

I have not seen Dr. merrigan since he was with John Muir Urgent care in Walnut creek. I was so bummed when he moved. I have to say, to this day he is my favorite doctor. I wish he could still be my primary. He’s the best. Really friendly, down to earth and patient.
At one point, I had a multitude of somewhat random symptoms. No one could figure out what was going on. End result was always «we cant find anything, so nothing wrong».
Ummmmmm really… Odd because I still feel like complete crap (not now, but at the time).
Just because a doctor cannot find what is wrong, does not mean there’s nothing wrong. It just means your doc needs to think outside the box. They are after all just «practicing medicine». Some clearly need more practice (;
I could names names, but I wont… Expect Howard Zeigar. Ill name that one. You may want to skip him.
Dr. merrigan thought outside the box which was really great and most important, he didnt give up or brush you off. He was determined to figure out what was going on and fix it. Awesome doc. I wish they were all like him. Ive been to some really crummy Doctors in the last few years. A few ok ones too, but they really are hard to find these days. It seems its all about money and getting you out in 3 – 5 minutes so they can meet their daily quota or whatever it is they need to rush out for (after you have been waiting there for over an hour to see them lol). Doctor merrigan was never like that. If he’s your doc, youre lucky, don’t switch insurances.
