Dr. Perlman was a great find! I had a significant injury mid-day and was trying to see a sports orthopedist the same day. Dr. Perlman stayed late to see me the same day. I couldn't be more satisfied. He is VERY smart and took the time to thoroughly explain my injury and provide a treatment plan that has worked out great.
