Dr. Meryl Kersten Perlman, MD

Dr. Perlman was our children’s pediatrician for many years. She always took the time to listen to our concerns, answer our questions and establish a relationship with our family. She researched issues and followed up with us when she didn’t immediately have answers. Every pediatrician we have had since her has paled in comparison. She is one of the few physicians I would completely trust to provide the best possible care.

The absolute best! I don't often use superlatives, but this woman deserves every accolade that can be given. Not only is she extremely intelligent, she is an excellent diagnostician, a critical and creative thinker, and most important, caring. She follows up and takes an active interest in each and every child (I know because many of my friends and acquaintances have her as pediatrician for their kids--alas, I'm not special.) She possesses a very rare combination of brilliance and bedside manner.
