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.

Excellent care. Outstanding in every way.
Dr. Perea is excellent and keeps up to date on peer-reviewed research in modern health care. The nurses, lab technicians and front office staff are outstanding and a credit to the highest standards of healthcare.

Very condescending and disrespectful
Amila Perera is a very condescending and disrespectful person. She should not be in a position to provide or make decisions regarding care, considering she lacks the capability.

Dr. Perera is outstanding. Choosing a primary care physician is the most important decision anyone can make to achieve optimal health and quality longevity. And, Dr. Amila Perera is my #1 choice. As a University of Michigan doctoral grad practicing gerontology for over 40 years, I’ve been blessed with the good fortune of encountering America’s best and brightest health care professionals working in clinical practice, care administration, health policy and research. In my opinion, those seeking the best care will need to search, far and wide, to find a primary care provider who even approximates Dr. Perera’s exceptional expertise, keen analytic mind and generous compassion for quality care.

Dr. Perera has been my primary care physician since 1996. I had lab work done at her office 2 years ago. They found liver damge. Since then I have had my gallbladder removed. Her office has done all my follow ups. I need an endoscopy and colonoscopy done but they want lab work (blood) done. Dr. Perera office will not do the lab work at their office? Why?

Dr. Perera has been my PCP for at least over 15 years. She has saved my life at least one time for sure has diligently taken care of me all of these years. I would not switch from her unless she retires or quits. She is the best. Have all important details written so that you can convey your issues accurately. She will listen to you very carefully.
