Dr. Merrill has lived and worked in the Medford area since 1999. Before this, he had a podiatric practice in Pullman, Washington for 7 years.

Running has been a great help in Dr. Merrill’s personal life and practice. In addition to keeping him in good health, he has more empathy for runners and their specific injuries and foot/ankle problems, as he has been afflicted with some of the same foot issues that he treats. He plans on one-day completing a 100-mile endurance ultramarathon.

Dr. Merrill has been married since 1984. At present he has 3 married children and 5 grandchildren. His passions are running, fly fishing and playing with his awesome grandchildren.
