I went to Kelly Perkins for years! I loved her as a doctor. She listened; answered questions & took great care in my health. I was disappointed when she went into research medicine but understood. I would totally recommend her as a primary care physician!

She is a great Doctor but the fact that I can't ever get in when I am sick and no one ever calls back is a major problem. I don't want to have to go to urgent care when I have strep throat because I can not get in.
