Saw him at the emergency room after a motorcycle accident. Had the nurse clean my road rash with not even a tylenol. Wouldn't give me an antibiotic even though had large wounds which later got infected and I had to seek further medical attention to get ibuprofen 800 and antibiotics.

I went to the ER three times in one week. On the third time I went to St.Joseph Dr.Samerson came in to talk to me. He then said to me you look perfectly fine and in good health. I then told him I'm sorry sir I know my body. He told me you're right I'm going to send you down for a CT scan. When he got the results he apologized to me for think I was lying and for all the other Doctors who sent me home. I just want to say Thanks for believing me.

I like how he was so nice to our family. There were 5 of us with runny noses that came in together and it was like he didn't even have to examine us- he knew exactly what we had! I'm definitely going to go back and talk to him about this abdominal pain i've had for 3 years now. I would have mentioned it then but the charge nurse offered me a taxi cab voucher if I'd leave. What a deal! Free ride to the ER in the ambulance, a free meal for the family there, and then a free ride home! We love you Dr. Samerson!

We meet Dr. Samerson at St. Joseph Emergency room. My husband was the patient. We found Dr. Samerson to be very educated in his field and willing to share his knowledge. He is very courteous and well spoken. Just a nice man.
