“Dr. Peri (with the dual respect to himself and the clinic within which he operates) is a medical practitioner beyond professional reproach. While our encounter was rooted in my mistaken perception that Dr. Peri is a dermatologist (when, in fact, he is a general practitioner), I was so impressed with his attitude toward my malady that I am changing my PCP to Dr. Peri. It is universally true that there are so-called 'professionals' who eschew the "greater good" which their particular career-domains have enjoined them to undertake. These 'professionals' then undertake to supplant these eternal animating ideals in favor of unmitigated egotism, self-aggranidizment, and ephemeral financial gain. For some people, it's all about "me". For some people, it's never about "you". I do not consider Dr. Peri to be someone of such character.”

The staff was great especially Anisa.

Beside the assistant that was very nice, the doctor has nothing to do with professionalism, I felt I was in a grocerie store talking to a cashier, I’m sorry I cashier will be way nicer than this doctor. He was rushing on finishing he literally Talked to me for 5 min, he has no such thing as privacy.
Excellent !!
He used to be my doctor until my I changed my insurance and now I have insurance benefits with my new job and was super excited to know he was in the net work
Unbelievably rude. Dr. Peri literally yelled at me multiple times because I was scared about my health condition. He as well refused to do basic blood-work because he said it would take 'days'...which was mind boggling. Instead of giving me the chance to explain my complex medical history, Dr. Peri again yelled at me and then gave me a hand-written referral to the hospital when I made it clear I was just recently discharged. I can't quite comprehend what changes a doctor to think they've the ability to treat someone so poorly. Dr. Peri seriously needs to take a better look at himself and to consider if he truly wants to remain seeing patients.
great doctor, very caring.

Everyone was nice and friendly.

In case anyone has united health choice as their insurance provider, this doctor doesn't accept the insurance. Unfortunately, I wasn't made aware of this fact until I showed up at the office.

Execelent!
Clearly a doctor with many years of experience. Very knowledgeable. I love how honest he is. Some might find him blunt, but I like people who say it like it is. Plus the front desk is very warm and helpful. Overall excellant office experience. Highly recommend!
My visit was very good. Thank you.
Great!
Very good.
Great!
Excellent.
I'll be honest..I was a little sceptical at first, due to the fact that I had to change him to my PCP before seeing him, but I am glad I did. The office itself was really nice(bigger than I thought from looking on the outside). Very well kept. The staff was very friendly and professional. I didn't wait long before getting called in. Did the usual tests w/ the nurse, then it was time to see Dr. Peri. He listened to all my concerns, made me feel comfortable, was blunt, and didn't feel like I was being "brushed off". Overall, I had a good experience. I also need to mention that the nurse was EXCELLENT when it came down to the phlembotomy. Didn't feel a thing! Gotta love that!
