Meet James

I attended medical school at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston, SC. In addition, both my residency in internal medicine and fellowship in cardiology were completed at the Medical University of South Carolina. I truly enjoy helping my patients with cardiovascular disease restore their health and wellbeing. I consider myself fortunate to practice cardiology in the upstate of South Carolina.

Dr Merriam is top tier intellectually but also manages to speak to my level without "talking down". He listens well. Be projects caring. He's one of the best I've encountered.

Dr. Merriam always explains treatment or options in easy to understand ways and takes enough time to listen to my questions.
