Patient Reviews
Jul 09, 2024
My son struggled with painful swelling for several years and we saw many specialists who could rule things out but not provide a diagnosis. Finally we were referred to Dr. Alperin who was able to diagnose my son's pretty rare condition and find him an effective treatment. Now he has a lot less pain and a more normal childhood. Dr. Alperin has been very responsive to any concerns and messages, and my son enjoys his visits with her!
