Kim was very good at what she does, makes these online visits as good as being there in person, and also is in direct contact with Dr. Najm at all times.

I had brain surgery at CC in 2005 and Kim Merner and Dr. Najm were assigned to me. Kim and Dr. Najm are both fantastic! I happily see Kim yearly now. She's wonderful.

Kim was awesome. She was willing to work with my terrible jokes and everything (not all docs appreciate sarcasm & I forget because my memory is terrible). she never questioned whether I was "with it" either which meant a ton. I just forgot to turn off my sarcasm. it was fine with her :-) bad jokes and all.

Kim Merner is extremely professional and always asks pertinent questions. She had reviewed my blood work and previous visits and was up to speed for my visit. Kim always listens and respects me as a patient. Very fortunate to have her as a provider.
