Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

In 2017, I was looking for a new Primary Physician that I had a more genuine connection with and I found Dr. Perkins. I have been her patient since then and I travel 20+ miles to see her. Dr. Perkins has great rapport building skills, she is very patient, and I feel she provides personalized care. Throughout the years, I had people tell me they knew they were healthy inside and out, and I was a little jealous as I did not have that confidence. Then I met Dr. Perkins and now I have that confidence. She has been the best doctor I have ever had and I know my health is of the utmost importance to her. If she is accepting new patients, you should seriously consider seeing her.

Very Happy Patient – Oct 23, 2020
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Perkins?
I am a retired RN, as well as a patient of Dr. Shanti Perkins. Although I live in Palo Alto I drive to San Carlos just to see her. She is a remarkable woman & physician. She is gifted as a caring physician; she listens to concerns, she is more than willing to discuss treatment options with me & together we make decisions about treatment options. She makes referrals immediately-she discovered multiple bilateral breast lumps and in my presence she referred me to the mammography/ultrasound depts.
