Jan 22, 2021
Dr Mercado is awesome! He takes the time to verify you really understand your diagnosis and future steps. He always looks at how it's affecting me not just now but 5,10 + years. He shows he cares about me as a person, not just a patient or number. I would recommend him to anyone with kidney issues as he is the best around.
