Center for Eyelid & Facial Plastic Surgery - Kevin I. Perman, MD

Dr. Perman repaired a chalazion after another surgeon did a subpar job. He did a fantastic job. Highly recommend.

Great experience! From start to finish, the experience was just lovely. Staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Dr. Perman was a delight. I am very happy with my results - bilateral lower lid blepharoplasty. I had bags for days, and always looked tired my whole life (hereditary.) No more!

Excellent outcome from my eyelid surgery (drooping lid); Dr. Perman is low-key and very competent, I highly recommend him.

Waste of time. Dr Perman didn't even attempt treatment. We went to Dr Perman based on a referral from our opthalmologist. There were two issues. Both were for a second opinion (which our primary opthalmologist encouraged). Dr Perman dismissed the first concern (an object in the eye) without even looking at the eye. He literally had no tools in the room to even look for an object in the eye. In the second case, he alternately denied the condition existed (entropion, even though the eye lashes are visibly touching the eye) and told us to return to a surgeon we used a year earlier, even though that doctor is 7,000 miles away. If the condition doesn't exist, why would we return to the original doctor....? Dismissive doctor, and a waste of time.

I was given trusted referral to Dr. Kevin Perman by my ophthalmologist of 24 years and found his staff so rude and lacking in basic communication etiquette I had to leave the office in disgust before seeing this Doctor after a 5 week protracted affair. Unlike other cosmetic surgeons, this Doctor requires a $75 consult fee while his peers offered considerable time and much more polite staff for reviewing blepharoplasty eyelid surgery where the specialties were not a fit. Yet his assistant Zuleyka was rude from the start resisting my request to speak with the Office Manager, Susan, who when I finally reached her was defensive and failed repeatedly to follow-up as needed in advance of the consult. She had every excuse why she couldn't follow-up over a 3-week period as arranged and then when we finally covered this medical concerns for the consult, Susan and Zuleyka were both terribly rude on day of visit leaving me abandoned for half an hour in the hallway, so I had to leave in disgust before meeting this Doctor. When I followed up with Dr. Perman about the awful experience over a 5-week period that cast serious doubt on the post surgery care in his office, he compared the experience to "a bad meal at a good restaurant." This Doctor had an arrogant attitude and couldn't care less about the awful treatment of his staff much less appreciate how poor a reflection this is on his practice or the quality of care from his office. Responding to Answer: The Respondent would suggest ignoring several other similar reviews posted by patients on this platform as well as Yelp and RateMDs.com review platforms where important feedback has been shared. Rather than trivializing awful experiences with her office, the Respondent could use a dose of humility and own up to the poor patient experiences reported.
