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.

ALWAYS KIND, KNOWLEDGEABLE, AND CARING.
HE HEARD ME! HE TESTED ME! HE WENT OUT OF HIS WAY TO FIND ME A DOCTOR WHO COULD HELP WITH CANCER. HE IS PART OF A TEAM ... HE MAKES ME COMFORTABLE. HIS STYLE IS TO USE THE PHONE TO COMMUNICATE ... UN LIKE MANY THAT USE A PORTAL, OR TELECOMMUNICATION ... A REGULAR CALL IS ALWAYS SPECIAL. I LIKE HIM AND HIS WAYS ARE VERY TRADITIONAL AND FOR ME THAT WORKS WELL.

This was my first visit with Pulmonologist Dr. Michael Perkins and he is excellent. Dr. Perkins is exceptionally skilled, competent and knowledgeable. Five stars also for his preparation for this first visit, having reviewed diligently all scans and reports sent to his office. Dr. Perkins explained clearly & succinctly the highlights of the tests taken, his recommended next steps, and the reasons why. He showed clear pictures of my scans and explained them to me. He inspired confidence and trust, taking the necessary time to be sure that I had accurate understanding and was in agreement with next steps. Dr. Perkins is Aces. I recommend him without reservation.

I've always had good experiences at Dr. Perkins' office. I rarely have a long waiting time. He is easy to talk to, doesn't duck questions and is very knowledgeable about pulmonary disease. He also responds to communications sent from home, which is very much appreciated. Overall great doctor!

Initial visit with my mom. The staff was all very friendly and prompt. Dr. Perkins was kind, knowledgeable and reviewed my mothers chart before coming in. He had testing done that day in the office. We never felt rushed. In fact, he was attentive. His staff had oxygen delivered to her home later that night. Very pleased we found him and his wonderful staff.

I was greeted by a friendly and efficient staff. Dr. Perkins took the time to explain treatment options, pros and cons as well as a thorough explanation of the reasons for his recommendation. He entertained all of my questions and was very focused on treating the “whole patient”. This was probably the best visit to a specialists I’ve ever had. I would recommend him without hesitation!

I was referred by my cardiologist and was very pleased. He’s thorough and very personable. He asked questions and looked for answers. Meeting a new physician can be stressful but he and his staff made all that anxiety go away. This may be inappropriate but he’s easy on the eyes too! Hope I didn’t offend but my first visit was more than I had anticipated. Thank you.

Overall I had a great experience with my first visit to Dr. Perkins. He is very professional and treated me with the utmost respect. He explained the CT scan results and set up a care plan for the future. My only problem was in getting the initial appointment set up. Somehow the referral from my primary care physician's office got lost and it took several days to get it straightened out. But everything went smoothly after that. I would highly recommend this team.
