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.

Dumb accident!!!
Dr. Pernia immediately knew surgery was necessary and repaired my de-gloved pinky finger and place a temporary nail so that the skin would shape correctly when the new one grew back. Also sewed the ring finger nail bed that was lacerated. Most of all he/we prayed before my surgery! I don’t remember the prayer but I know he was the right doctor for me when he did!!!

Although this surgery was years ago I had a great experience. Dr Pernia was wonderful and very understanding. He took time to talk to me about any concerns I had. I was very pleased with my breast reduction. As mentioned it's been years and I'm still loving my results!!
