“I had a great experience here, which is no surprise. Dr. Perlmutter is my derm of choice ever since she removed a mole I had on my face 10 years ago. I don't go often, but especially for any procedure I trust her completely. Her demeanor is friendly and focused, and she answers every question thoroughly and patiently. Wait time was nothing, and her assistants and the front office staff were extremely helpful, welcoming and informative. Recommend!”
