Dr. Praveen Perni, MD

The office staff was personable every visit. Dr. Perni was easy to speak with and very detailed on the procedure I was having. In recovery I stood straight up and pain free. The last follow up appointment he came in and again was kind asking questions about my health and well being. I have already recommend him to 2 of my coworkers.

Dr. Perni explained everything he was going to do for my surgery. Everything went great. I’m pain free after over 25 years of lower back pain. Excellent spine surgeon.

Dr Perni, Heidi and the entire staff are the best!!! They are organized, timely and caring! Dr Perni did surgery on my mom, and she is up and around already. Such a great experience all the way around!!! Thank you!! The Olson Family!!

Dr. Perni explained my planned surgery in easy to understand terms and made me feel at ease. I felt as though I was making the right decision by proceeding with the surgery and knew that I would be in good hands.

I was very happy and satisfied with the results.I do not have the pain I had before the operation.

Dr Perni explained in detail what he would be doing during my surgery. He showed me the x-rays with the area and explained how the surgery would take place. He answered all my questions and concerns.

I felt that Perni and his staff did a great job in fixing the condition that was causing so much sciatica pain. When I first met with Dr Perni, he was very professional and to the point. Showed me exactly what was ailing me and what he could do to fix it. Then he turned around and offered me a surgery date five days later. I took it. Otherwise, his next available surgery date was over a month later. Yes, I think Riverview Health and Dr Perni and his team did a great job. I appreciate them.

Dr. Perni is a wonderful Dr. Very good bedside manner. Very proactive in getting me into pain management. Unfortunately, infusions didn’t do the trick. He got me into surgery quickly. I’m 6 weeks out from surgery, and have my life back. My surgery was great, no problems. Highly recommend him and his staff!

I needed spine surgery for several months before I actually decided to do it. Dr. Perni was recommended to me by a friend who had back surgery. I met with him and was very impressed; he was professional, friendly and positive. My surgery is over and I am improving weekly. I would highly recommend Dr. Perni. His staff is very friendly, which is nice in this day and age!

Dr. Perni gave me my life back. From the first consultation, to the MRI, to the diagnosis, to the explanation of needed treatment, to the surgery, Dr. Perni was always professional, caring, sensitive, attentive and proactive in providing what was needed for my complete recovery. I can say the same for his physician's assistant and support staff. One year out from my surgery, if I follow some light shifts in how I bend and lift, I am pain free. I walk 2-3 miles 5 days a week and living a full life. Thank you, Dr. Perni.

Dr perni did a amazing job on my surgery I couldn’t have asked for a better back surgeon wonderful job and his team was awesome to

Dr Perni, Christina and the rest of his staff were fabulous. After 40+ years of lower back issues and pain I got to a point that I needed to have something surgically done. Dr Perni explained what was going on with my spine and recommended what I needed to have done to correct it. I had lower lumbar discectomy surgery at the end of March and have eliminated 90-95% of the pain. Surgery, recovery and follow-up have all gone great and am thankful for his skill and professionalism to assist me with this issue.

Had a arthritic cyst removed from my spine. Surgery went extremely well and the follow up services were great. Staff is very personable, friendly, and professional. Provided options for remedy with all possible outcomes allowing me to make the decision on what procedure to pursue.

I received a neck surgery from Dr. Perni last fall due to a fall i had. Not only does he do superb work his entire team is the best i have seen. I am an Occupational Therapist and i have worked with many surgeons and he ranks at the top for me as a patient and as a professional who myself has worked with patients with upper extremity issues for the past 26 years. If there were more than five stars on this review i would give them. I highly recommend him for your surgery needs.

Dr. Perni and his staff were great. Dr. Perni fully explained my condition and my options without pressuring me to make an immediate decision. After I chose the procedure, the follow-up appointments were on-time and Dr. Perni and his PA Christina were professional and kind. I would recommend him to others.

Excellent. Very nice outpatient experience. No further back or leg pain. Follow up with PAs also very good. Good demeanor. Pleasant experience considering.

Dr Perni is an excellent surgeon and his staff is phenomenal. 25 years of back issues are now in the rear view mirror. Thank you so much for your skill and graciousness. I highly recommend this practice to anyone who is tired of struggling and surgery is an option.
