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.

Dr. Perryman has been my primary care physician for almost six years. My latest appointment he addressed the abdominal pain I was experiencing along with a recent sleep study I had. I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Perryman as a physician he may be the most thorough physician I have ever had.

Dr. Perryman is thorough in each visit and strives to arrive at as complete a diagnosis and treatment as possible in the office. He has shown a desire to treat both the illness and the specific needs of the patient by spending the necessary time to examine the physical and emotional needs of both myself and my wife. He listens as long as necessary to reach thought out solutions or will do additional research after the appointment. He never takes shortcuts in examining or treating us.
