Biography
|
Dr. Mercado comes from a family that places great value on education. Growing up, he had the privilege of having several physicians as role models. Their dedication to patient care ... and lifelong learning inspired him to pursue medicine. What drew him most to becoming a doctor was the unique combination of challenges and opportunities the field offers, including the ability to adapt and commitment to continuous learning. He is continually inspired by the immediate, life-changing impact interventional cardiology has on patients—often at some of the most critical moments in their lives. Dr. Mercado specializes in endovascular treatment, ranging from preventive strategies to advanced therapies such as angioplasty, stenting, and intravascular imaging. What excites him is the evolving intersection of innovation and patient care—each advancement providing new ways to improve outcomes and enhance quality of life. One of his favorite ways to practice self-care and wellness is riding his mountain bike, which provides the perfect balance of mental clarity and physical exertion, leaving him feeling refreshed and re-energized.

Insurances accepted
Baylor Scott & White has established agreements with several types of insurance to ensure your health needs are covered.
Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice.
Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.
