Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

She is a lifesaver!
Dr. Perrin went above and beyond to treat my 80-year-old mom when multiple mammograms, ultrasounds and biopsies showed inconclusive results. She opted for a lumpectomy followed by biopsy which did indeed reveal aggressive invasive ductal carcinoma when all the other tests had come back negative. It wasn't sitting right with her and she persisted to make sure if cancer was present - she wouldn't miss it. When she performed surgery, she did an excellent job. She takes the time to explain things in a thorough and understandable manner, she follows up, she cares and she is truly excellent at what she does. We are incredibly grateful to have her as part of my mom's care team.

Dr. Perrin is a very thorough, knowledgeable, and experienced doctor. She has great bedside manner and I felt listened to and not rushed during our consultation. After reading my “after visit summery” and how detailed and organized she was capturing everything I had explained to her during our initial appointment, I knew she was a good fit for me. I just had my double mastectomy with her in December and it went well. My little girl wants to become a doctor "just like Dr. Perrin."

I liked Dr. Perrin personally, but she moved to quickly and talked fast. I did think she listened except after surgery when I wasn’t happy with the results. Now I have to live with a very unaesthetic result.

Not my experience at all. Much too blasé about long term damages from treatment. Zero bedside manner, when I went to shake hands with her it was like touching something dead. Like, without gloves and a scalpel she would rather not touch you period.

Dr. Perrin is an outstanding doctor - one who marries the attributes of expertise with listening to a patient and coming up with a plan based on merit and feedback. I can't say enough about her. So grateful she came recommended and although I hope I won't be in need of future treatment I am comforted by the fact I know just who to see and will be in excellent hands!
