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 in a hurry and slow, very slow to refill medicines. Always run out of meds which are on auto refill but run out because he or his office never return fax to pharmacy on first request.

Dr. Perkins is very knowledgeable, caring, and has a wonderful "bedside" manner. When I went to see him, my BP was very high. I was sent to the lab and when I left there, they said to go back to Dr. Perkins office. He wanted to make sure my BP had gone down enough for me to drive home! You don't find many doctors around here like that. He takes time with his patients and does not "rush" through them to get to the next one. Would recommend him highly!

I have never had the kind and attentive care that I've received with Dr. Perkins. Yes, I would recommend him to any deserving soul ! My name is Tammi Luman and I approve this statement.

I will NOT recommend him. The first visit I had to wait an hour and a half before I saw him. I notified him via telephone of reactions to a medication. Instead of him calling me back with a new medication, I have to wait 1 month to see him. I'm losing my vision and apparently that isn't important enough to warrant a phone call.
