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.

I have been a patient of Dr Perkins since 2014. He has always responded to my emails or phone calls. After 7 months I was in remission and still am today.

In 2002, I believe that was the year, Dr. Perkins treated my mother with Burkitts Lymphoma. CURED my mother. He was there through everything. We have ran into him a few times down town and he hasn’t changed a bit. I was maybe 5 when my mother was going through chemo/radiaton so I didn’t understand but now, being 22, I am so beyond greatful she switched to Dr. Perkins. She is still to this day cancer free! Thank you!

I agree that he is very knowledgeable but I also lost confidence when he failed to respond to messages asking to be contacted. In addition, prescriptions were not called in, appointments canceled and orders for testing were not placed. No follow through at all, seems to either be over booked or uncaring.

Although he is very knowledgeable about my leukemia and treatment option I lost all confidence when he failed to respond to my contacts first regarding what I was told was need for admission within 5 days for induction therapy. That day came and went with no word from him or his office and no response to my messages for nearly 2 weeks. The second was after my nearly passing away. Four messages left since late November with not one response from him or his office. No confidence at all
