Wrong Fit for Me More often than not, I felt she discounted…read moremy personal holistic approach to my medical care, especially when I asked very specific questions I had researched. I am one who is unable to tolerate many of the prescribed medications on the market and prefer to attack the problem with diet/exercise rather than treat with medications that have side affects, yet she ignored my stance over and over. I feel she needs to respect ONE SIZES DOES NOT FIT ALL and to help the patient approach care without drugs - WHERE APPROPRIATE of course. I found a new doctor that I feel will be a better fit and with more credentials as over the years I lost my trust in this doctor..

Dr Mercer didn't listen to me at all, talked over me, and talked to my husband about my care…read moreinstead of me. She talked more about her own health problems than mine. She was very condescending, and she made a lot of untrue assumptions about my health and condition that she didn't give me any opportunity to correct. She told me, a prediabetic, not to monitor my levels or symptoms, because I would be getting diabetes anyway and I could "worry about it then." She told me I couldn't be depressed because I was "married and looked happy." When I told her a medication was ineffective for me, she argued with me that I didn't understand the medication. Meanwhile, there was evidence in my blood tests that it wasn't effective. She told me I needed to lose weight while completely disregarding the medical conditions that are contributing to that inability to lose weight. She told me "I don't even know your diet, but we need to change your diet." I am an ambulatory wheelchair user. She told me I was "too young to be in a wheelchair" while simultaneously asking no questions about what symptoms lead me to be in a wheelchair. She assumed the pain/weakness was in my legs because she never took a moment to ask where it was. It was my back. When I corrected her, she dismissed me. There is more, all negative, but these were the highlights. It was evident that she had made up her mind about me as soon as she saw my age, weight, and my wheelchair. She let her biases prevent her from actually engaging with me and the provided care clearly suffered because of that. On a more personal note, she was fully aware of my mother's terminal cancer before my appointment, because she has been involved in my mother's care as well. I am my mother's primary caregiver. She knew and verbally acknowledged the kind of stress that situation would put on a person. I told her I had been diagnosed with MDD and GAD. She was aware that I had the mental conditions and external circumstances to create a mentally and emotionally sensitive or delicate person. She still chose to treat me in a callous and condescending way. I am very fortunate that I have a good support system at home and a trusted therapist. For another person in my situation, but without a support system to fall back on, a visit to Dr Mercer could be dangerous.

ABSOLUTE HEALTHCARE IS THE WORST. DO NOT GO THERE. I had an appt this morning at their location…read moreat Busch Blvd in Tampa. I found the gate locked. I called and got transferred to the Port Richey office. They told me my doctor left for another position and so the office is closed. No one notified me when my doctor left, and I got the usual reminder emails and texts for days before asking me to confirm my appt. The receptionist at Port Richey said they called me to reschedule my appt, but I didn't answer, and they left a voicemail. There vm came in the middle of the usual stream of reminder emails and texts and just assumed the vm was another one, and deleted it. But the receptionist had the nerve to start blaming me for missing their one phone call, so I gave her some four letter words and hung up.
