Dr. Carol Ann Merklein Hess, MD

Have been a patient since she opened on P.I. She listens, understands, and either solves my problem or gives a good referral. My husband loved her too. CATHY

My experience with Dr Hess was a nightmare. She used every excuse she could come up with to get money out of me. And when I started to ask questions she tried to blackmail me into paying these crazy fees by saying she would withdraw her referral for pain management. How can someone call them self a doctor and them threaten to withhold medical treatment because you aren't willing to be used and basically stolen from. And talk about HIPPA issues. You can hear every word spoken in her exam room from the lobby. And after exams she talks about your health issues and meds in front of everyone in the lobby. In short, please DO NOT see this doctor.
