“I had the same symptoms that I had about 5 months ago. First time tried 2 clinics and 2 Urgent care centers and everyone said I was healthy and fine and I still was having severe ureter pain. Dr. Peretz was the only one who took the time and ran the right tests to figure out my issues. He is a thorough doctor and truly listens to your problems and cares. Highly recommend. I have been to 3 other Women’s care locations in the area, PC, Brandon and Temple Terrace. Have been seeing Dr. Peretz at both Lakeland locations for 2 years. Worth a drive if you need a great doctor and staff. ”

Very clean and professional office. Everyone is extremely kind and knowledgeable! Dr. Puretz was very nice, personal and thorough. Most places it seems like you wait forever to then be pushed along so the doctor can get to their next patient, but here is just the opposite! Quick service and they take their time with you. Will certainly be going back and would definitely recommend!

This is a great office. Wait time is always short. On the times I have been late, they have been able to squeeze me in between times. Everything is very clean and actually has very nice decor. My doctor is Dr.Puretz and he’s someone who will listen, let you take your time and maintains a level of professionism. The staff is very personable. They also have some staff that is bilingual as well. Great place! I recommend it to all women.
