5 out of 5 stars

Dr. Perkins is the first doctor ever to take my symptoms seriously. While he didn't promise the exact solution (which would've been unreasonable), he did promise that we will try different things until the symptoms are appropriately addressed. He also spent time discussing other potential contributing factors and making sure I have a plan in place to address them (such as referral to allergist). Thank you!

Dr. Perkins gave a thorough explanation of why I need to adjust my meds. This visit and on one prior visit, he used the word f_____ to describe a related scenario. I'd prefer not to hear that word during a medical visit.
