This is my first visit. He was running late and first thing he said was “I’m sorry I’m late”. Then he spent almost 30 minutes talking to me and answering my questions. I see him again in a few weeks and I hope I have the same positive experience.

Dr. Perry is a brilliant neurosurgeon. He is very understanding, compassionate and cares about his patients. My spine surgery was pretty tough but he assured me that I would heal properly if I followed instructions. I am going to miss seeing Dr. Perry after I am all healed up.
