'Med' in the case of this sheet is the phrase 'Doctor of Medicine'. So I want
it to merge the cells keeping only the phrase Doctor of Medicine if present
in the columns.

What is med value? A string which contains 'med'?
Create a helper col where you can have a concatenate with if to get the med
value then convert to value and delete first three cols
=concatenate(if(condition checking for med in a1,a1,"")&if(condition
checking for med in b1,b1,""),if(condition checking for med in c1,c1,""))

Hello,

I have a spreadsheet where I am trying to consolidate three columns of data
into one column which will keep only one of the three columns values.

Ex:

ColA ColB ColC
Med Bis IT
Eng Med Sci
Sci IT Med

I would want to merge these three just keeping any 'Med' values.
