    Having relocated and moving to Cape Town and having to find new health care providers. I recently had the privilege of being under the care of Dr. Merrington, and I can't praise her enough. From the moment I walked into her office, I was immediately struck by her kind and patient demeanor. Dr. Merrington possesses an amazing bedside manner, and her ability to put patients at ease is truly remarkable. What impressed me the most was her exceptional listening skills. She attentively heard out all of my concerns and questions, never rushing or dismissing any of them. Dr. Merrington made me feel heard and understood, which is a rare and invaluable trait in a healthcare professional. Dr. Merrington's compassionate and empathetic approach to medicine is a breath of fresh air. I couldn't be more grateful for the positive experience I had with her, and I highly recommend Dr. Merrington to anyone seeking a doctor who truly cares about their patients' well-being.
