George R. Merriman II, MD

George R. Merriman II is identified in CHRISTUS and ASMBS information for bariatric and minimally invasive surgery in Shreveport. His society listing describes sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass, SADI and revision surgery. His education includes Southern Methodist University and surgical training at the University of Alabama. The retained dated ABS record labels his board status “Retired,” while CHRISTUS advertises surgical services; this difference does not establish clinical retirement, and personal operating availability needs confirmation.
