Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Amazing Doctor and great bedside manner.
Logan Health and Dr Perser made me feel as though I was the only patient for the day, My surgery was explained explicitly and all questions answered to my satisfaction, I am in my rehab period, and I feel very confident that I will be completely healed at the end of rehab. Thoroughly recommend Logan Health (especially Mary and Jennifer in the International Medical section)'Never too much trouble for them whatever you need. I felt at ease with all the staff that I came in contact with and felt they were well qualified in their fields.

Took 3 hours for a 15 minute appt.!
This was the second time I went to the Columbia Falls Orthopedic office on 11th. The first time was to see Dr. Joyce, my appt. was at 3:00, I waited 30 min. in the waiting room, then was put into a room and told to put shorts on. The room was very cold. I waiting 1 45 minutes before leaving without seeing the dr.! A nurse did come in to take vitals, but she could not get the computer to work. This time I saw Dr. Perser, and took a chance, said I would never go to that office again, but thought with a different dr. it couldn't happen again. My appt. was at 11, I once again waited for 30 minutes before being taken to a room. While in the waiting room for about 15 minutes another lady came in to check in for an appt. as well. I was in the waiting room for 1 hour and 45 minutes before the dr. came in, and saw she had seen the woman who came in 15 minutes after I did. They lost my chart and it took them about 10 minutes to find it. It took a total of 3 hours for a 15 minute appt.

I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Perser to anyone. She is one of the best orthopedic surgeons in the valley. I was very impressed by her kindness and the time she takes to explain any and all options. She is the best!
