Excellent provider - He could quickly make an assessment of pt.'s situation and needs - He is not only smart but also he is very friendly and seems to care for pt.'s.

4 out of 5 stars

Suggest that doctor use easy to understand layman's language when discussing my health condition. The tendency is to use medical terms that I do not understand.

He is the only doctor I've seen that actually seems to be trying to find the cause of the my medical problems. He Is one of the top 3 doctors I've ever met in my life.

Dr Michael Perkins is very excellent and very thorough and really made me feel very confident that my diagnosis is being handled by the best and most capable medical team. I was very comfortable and very at ease as soon as he spoke to me. I knew that I am in the best of hands.

Dr. Perkins is a rare breed….he never rushes, he listens and is incredibly supportive. I am so grateful to have found a doctor who is not only incredibly knowledgeable but talks to you as if you truly matter as a person not just another number! Thank you Dr. Perkins from the bottom of my heart.

Dr Perkins helped me immensely. I had had a persistent cough for 3 years for which my former pulmonologist couldn’t do anything. Dr Perkins kept doing tests until he figured it out. I’m so grateful to him
