Dr. Zachary Perlman immediately diagnosed husband's fractured shoulder. He took rays, told my husband to wear a sling provided. He recommended a top orthopedist for him to see. Not only that he contacted the doctor directly. Making it easier for my husband to come in to see that doctor. He went over and above. I highly recommend Dr. Perlman. He made the long wait worthwhile.

Everyone from the receptionist to the MD were very caring and compassionate! I have used this facility before and would recommend it anyone who needs care! There are no appointments so plan on a little wait but it is definitely worth it!
