“It took a while to be seen, but TO BE FAIR I do believe it’s because she takes her time with everyone. She listened to me carefully, explained things as many times as I needed, and I didn’t feel rushed. She went above and beyond to make sure I understood and left clear. The staff is also warm and friendly. Plenty of offices have rude staff, dismissive doctors, and make you wait forever because they DON’T care. So if I have to wait a little for an office that does care, I’m okay with that!”

“Dr. Persaud is incredibly kind and welcoming. From the moment I walked in, she made me feel comfortable and truly listened to all of my concerns without ever dismissing them. She asked thoughtful follow-up questions and took the time to understand what I was going through, which helped me feel reassured and supported. Dr. Persaud also ordered a thorough set of tests to help get to the bottom of my symptoms — I really felt heard and cared for. If you have the chance to book an appointment with her, don’t hesitate!”
