Extremely unfair treatment to us: seeing this doctor is a nightmare, I spent 4 weeks to schedule an appointment with Dr. Perkins for my dad for his cancer, spent so much time back and forth to get the medical records , call to schedule, when we got in his office, we have been told our record not in their system, and we have to go home and call back later. This is totally disgrace, and wasted patient's time , especically for a cancer patient's life.

No bedside manner. Rushing you in and out like cattle. Does not listen to the patient. His staff talks about him behind his back so to me that speaks volumes. Has written prescription incorrectly several times always have to double check them which is not yhe patients job. Does not communicate a treatment was denied by insurance he knrw the day befor appointment did not let us know so went in for nothing..well he got paid for an office visit and blood draw which was unnecessary..all about the $$
