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.

Excelente!
Dr. Pérez is an exceptional human being before the doctor who is fabulous. A doctor who is always available no matter how many times you need him. From the moment you arrive at the office you are treated with love and attention. Mara your nurse is wonderful!

Unbelievable! My wife works at the same Baptist Hospital and was not treated for having 4 months of gestation (Previously for work reasons we were out of the country) Denying medical care violates all ethics and elementary rights I will make the respective complaint to the health department

Admin and nurses are excellent, this is a very busy office but worth waiting which can be long but don't let that discourage you. Had full hysterectomy, scars are minimal. Dr. Perez has been good about difficulties with healing and staying in touch. My only issue was that you should make sure everything discussed gets placed on your surgical orders, if they aren't there it won't get done. Do not take just their words, it must be documented and I did not know this until after my surgery.

This office was very kind to me in a very difficult time, I can't thank them enough. Dr. Perez was very good at explaining why I was in so much pain & gave me options to think about so I could make a decision that was best for my circumstance. Of course in surgery it is the outcome that is critical, he explained more than some other surgeons I had been to so hoping for a good result. His staff is wonderful and professional. Definitely recommend after being poorly treated by other doctors.

I have seen Dr. Perez for at least 18 years. Even though I now live two hours away, it is worth the drive to see him. He takes his time speaking to you and explains everything in detail. I think he is a great doctor and everyone I know says the same thing.

Excellent experience! Very patient and understanding about my fears and concerns. He and his staff were not pushy and allowed me to weigh in all my options before making a final decision. The nurses at the hospital also admire his experience and expertise in obstrictrics, gynecology, and particularly in uterine fibroids.

An amazing, compassionate, and patient doctor! He delivered both my children and it was the best experience one could have while giving birth. Dr.Perez takes his time with me every time I see him, whether I am pregnant or not. I live over 30 miles away from him in Broward but the drive is worth it! Not to mention that his staff is also amazing! Mara is the best!

I have been seeing Dr.Perez for years for my basic feminine yearly visits. He is a very knowledgeable doctor and has a great bedside manner. I am now pregnant with my first baby and I am so glad that he takes my insurance because I feel very comfortable with him through this experience.

Not a good experience I had fibroids and he wanted to do a hysterectomy. He won't tell you any other options - just wants to push hysterectomy on me. I had a newer better procedure with another doctor non-invasive no loss of organs. Bad bedside manner.
