Dr Richard Merkler is a first-class Pediatrician with the added credential of being a Developmental Pediatrician. He also is a superior human being. He first saw my son when the latter was 3 years old, and I still consult with Dr Merkler now that my son is 20. Dr Merkler was a mainstay through my son's childhood and was especially helpful as I navigated life with an ADHD child. My son has received ALL the help he needs from Dr Merkler and through programs Dr Merkler was essential in getting my son admitted to. God bless Dr Richard Merkler.
