Philip S. Perilstein, MD

Very good Dr., Very determined to figure out what's going on with you. Does what he needs to do to get you seen in Specialists offices asap. Takes you and your medical problem very seriously unlike a lot of Dr's who just diagnose you with the first thing they can think of and send you on your way.

This doctor is abusive and rude, His ideal of practicing medicine to sent you to another doctor. Which would be ok, but he did never followed up with any of the dr. So in the end I have 6 different doctors and each were doing there own test and no communicate between any of them. i spent the last year in and out of the hospital 15 times. I know dr, perilstein reads this page often, On my last visit instead of discussing my condition, possible cancer, he wanted to talk about what i said here?He is young so maybe he is afraid of doing anything,but his abusive behavior is another thing. If he didnt like my answers he would take a step towards me and get in my face. I am a non violent person and i try not to raise my voice, this seemed to make him more aggressive,my advice avoid this doctor , hes not readyI ALSO KNOW HE HAS OFFICE STAFF PUT FAKE REVIEWS HERE TO KEEP HIS NUMBERS UPBUT JUDGE FOR YOURSELF

I am shocked to see these two reviews. When I went to see him last yr, I was a mess. He spent more then enough time with me and covered all angles. I found him to be realistic in his approach, I really liked he was of my peer group and I have been a happy patient for over a yr.

This Dr will just refers you another doctor. He has little or no knowledge of the medications he prescribes, I actual had to explain a side effect of a medication and , he just responded none of his other patients had this side effect. He then took out pda looked up and found it, wow . He becomes hostile if anything he says is questioned in anyway. perhaps because he is young and unprofessional. I just wish i had better insurance other then welfare medicaid then maybe I could find a better dr, better then nothing

he is the way an office visit with hi would go. Why are you here, go to a specialist. He wanted to try me on a new medicine, I asked what are the possible side effect? his answer I dont know everything has side effects!! I am soft spoken so i think he believed he intimidated me, he moved closer and kind of yelled at me. when ever I had to see him I always left very upset.At first i thought maybe we just have different personalities. Some very good doctors are kind of rude, but now I think he just could care less about his patients and wants out of the room as soon as possible. I now see why its easy to get an appointment with him
