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.

Made me borderline suicidal
No bedside manner, extremely rushed. I left the appointment feeling hopeless and sat in my car and sobbed. Did not give me any options moving forward and basically just said I need to lose weight and strengthen my legs. My ligament is completely tore. Don't see him.

Terrible bedside manner, rude, and rushed me along because the girls at front desk had to go to lunch. Then don’t schedule right before lunch.

Shoulder pain for months, he did not listen to to me, informed me it was my neck causing my arm pain and numbness in my arm and fingers. Consulted another orthopedic, I have three torn rotator cuffs with tendon and souring. Cubital and carpal tunnel syndrome, needed immediate rotator cuff reconstruction on the right shoulder with carpal tunnel release and have to go through the left next year. This guy is a joke, if he takes the time to listen and stop and listen to his the patient. he may save people from months, years of pain and suffering. He’s a horrible human being and doctor in my opinion based on my experience. I’m so happy God saved me from him to operate on me.

Most amazing surgeon
Dr Perry has done two surgeries for me over the past 5 years or so. The most recent one was just last month. He is concerned and an excellent surgeon who has repaired severe breaks in my left wrist and, most recently, my right arm. He and his staff are highly skilled and caring. He is my hero, though I would prefer not to keep needing his services. I don't think I could have recovered so well without him and his staff. I highly recommend Dr. Perry to anyone who needs an incredible orthopedic surgeon.

Dr. Perry is the most talented Orthopedic Surgeon in the great Orlando area. He has taken care of many of my family with great outcomes. He specializes in joint replacements and has the best bed manner of any physician I know. I highly recommend Dr. Perry for any orthopedic injury and joint replacement surgery.

Orthopedic Doctors don't come any better than Dr Perry. Extremely satisfied with my complete reverse shoulder replacement. He explained the procedure from the very first appt. He is very caring and has a great personalty. It has been only two weeks and am doing great with next to no pain. Could not be happier. T. Ewing. 10/01/19

I had heard good things about Dr Perry but I heard wrong! He did severe nerve damage to my leg during hip replacement and now I have lost use of my foot without a brace. He never checked on me once during my hospital stay. Stay away from this doctor.

Would NEVER recommend this doctor. He had made up his mind about my husband's "condition" before ever seeing him He was the doctor on call for the emergency room the night before and had to be called more than once in order to give the approval for us to leave. We saw him the next day, when he didn't even look at the wound, but commented about being called the night before because someone had "cut off his foot", but he KNEW, without ever seeing, it wouldn't be anything! 6 weeks-problems still
