I’ve done all my prenatal care through Desert Perinatal & Dr. Wilkes delivered my firstborn, Dr. Kheeler my second born (an unexpected VBAC while Dr. Wilkes was off the clock!) I strongly feel I’m only alive today thanks to the atShow moretentive care given by Dr. Wilkes. He got my son and me through an emergency c section that was very traumatic for me. He took the time to help me get postpartum help when I struggled after that birth. He also helped me get excited about my second birth. My daughter came when he was off the clock—and Dr Kheeler was incredible with us! The one thing that was wild was at my postpartum check up, Dr. Wilkes requires a final trans vaginal ultra sound. Thank GOD he did, I had a piece of placenta the size of a tennis ball still there that he needed to remove! Most providers don’t check for this kind of thing. I’m so lucky I had such great care & wish all women in Nevada could have the kindness and quality care provided in Desert Perinatal.
Everyone is really nice and caring. I’ve noticed they were possibly short staffed at both the Summerlin and Fort Apache locations a few times, where it takes a long time to be seen. One time they put me in the room to be monitoredShow more but never actually saw a nurse to hook me up to the machine so I sat there for 20 minutes until the provider came in and saw me. Another time I waited a while to be hooked up to the monitor and I had to go find a nurse after waiting for more than 10 minutes. They also don’t really inform me on what’s going on like when my next PR interval checks are, etc for upcoming appointments. I feel like they could be more communicative and I feel like a provider could be more involved. I’m just happy they do the ultrasounds and make sure my baby is healthy.

Dr. Wilkes is the absolute best! He made me feel so special and heard. Highly recommend him for your care.
Love this place.. Dr. Wilkes is the best.
love him and his staff!
Dr. Wilkes is always kind, informative, and an all around great guy! His office staff is great and always helpful and Bri the ultrasound tech makes all my appointments amazing and fun. I’m super happy I’m able to have him as my doctor to delivery our baby.
He explained everything and answered any questions. Very kind and very nice person.
Very informative and hilarious
This is my first pregnancy and Dr. Paul Wilkes does an amazing job in making you feel comfortable! The staff is also super nice and work with you to make sure you understand every step of the way!
Welcoming & professional! Such an amazing caring staff!
Dr Wilkes is hands down without a doubt the most amazing doctor I’ve ever had. The level of care and compassion he gives all of his patients just can’t be matched anywhere else!
Dr. Wilkes is hands down the BEST obgyn in the valley. He has excellent bedside, he is the most comforting and I would travel far and wide for him to deliver my two children again. I had cesareans for both- from finding out we were pregnant, to prenatal, to perinatal, he made our experience feel easy even though we had our challenges with the pregnancies. He’s positive, responsive, and is overall one of the best humans you will have the privilege of knowing.
Incredible experience from the beginning to end of my pregnancy! Dr Wilkes is truly amazing and very supportive. We couldn’t have picked a better Dr to deliver our twins!
Dr. Wilkes is the best OB and specialist that I’ve ever seen and known. I was so blessed and so lucky to be his patient. I became his patient in 2021 when I had my first baby. I liked him so much so I went back to him when I was pregnant with my second baby. There was a severe complication during labor, and Dr. Wilkes saved my uterus and of course my baby as well. I’m so grateful for everything he has done for us. My husband and I just love him so much! He is such an amazing person and a great doctor. I would give him 100 stars if I could. Thank you so much Dr. Wilkes!
Dr. Wilkes is amazing! I left another doctor to see him from a referral and the only regret I have is that I wish I would have seen him from the start. He’s honest, caring and takes his time with you. I will be sending all of my pregnant friends his way.
Dr. Wilkes is fantastic in every way. From the moment you walk in, you are well taken care of by their office staff, then enjoy a refreshing 5-10 minute wait time no matter the time of day, and then of course the nurses and Dr. Wilkes himself are so caring and knowledgeable. I can tell Dr. Wilkes really wants what's best for me and my baby, and I really appreciate that. He listens to me, and he helps me understand what's going on. This has been my hardest pregnancy by far but at the same token my best experience with the doctors visits. As a new patient with Dr. Wilkes and Desert Perinatal, I can say I am just thrilled I went this route.
Everyone was very professional, patient, and helpful. The facilities were clean. I am glad our fertility doctor recommended Dr. Wilkes.
First time meeting the doctor. He is very pleasant and caring with his patient. He gave me confidence that my baby is growing healthy. I appreciate his assistance and kind personality.
From the front office staff to the provider, everyone was phenomenal. The ultrasound tech was patient, empathetic, kind, and gentle. Dr. Wilkes seems like the cool uncle everyone wants to be around. He was energetic, efficient, and knowledgeable. Definitely wish this was a regular office I could frequent. Couldn’t recommend enough!
Always friendly/ great staff and Dr Wilkes is amazing!
I had a great experience for my anatomy scan visit. The front desk was very cordial and fast. I didn't have to wait long to be seen. The nurse and sonographer were polite and so kind to my toddler with me. They even gave her a snack. See. Wilkes is as awesome as ever.
Dr. Wilkes is amazing. I felt heard and comfortable and finally felt excited for this pregnancy.
Dr Paul Wilkes and most of the staff are amazing. I would highly recommend. I cannot speak on behalf of the other drs since I haven’t had the pleasure to meet them. But I don’t need to as long as I have dr Wilkes.
Doctor Wilkes has been there for all four of our children's birth! He has wonderful bed side manners and him and his staff are truly professionals! Doctor Wilkes treats you like family he doesn't look at you like a number. He honestly is just the best doctor to have when having a baby! Thanks for all you do doctor Wilkes wish their were more doctors like you out there!
Both Dr. Wilkes and all the staff are wonderful!
