What are others saying about us?

"Our third experience with Dr Merlo and couldn’t recommend him and his staff enough! Very professional, attentive and caring to a scared 10 year old ( 8 years old the first time around) who needed 6 baby teeth pulled out, each time. Everything went swimmingly! Don’t hesitate to go there!"

"Dr Merlo and his staff are fabulous. Punctual, courteous, and helpful. I live a good distance from his Maryland office, but the trek is well worth it. Highly recommended."
