On time appointment; friendly discussions; simple diagnostic pathway; rapid response with prescription for generic medication. But most importantly, the prescribed medication began working in 24 hours!! Documentation of visit, follow up appointment, and related printed information provided when leaving. Why go anywhere else than Resurgens? Dr. Peretz resolved my issue with ease and in a highly professional manner.

Very honest and professional staff. I received the very real information and got a cortisone shot to give me some time without pain to really be honest with myself and my decision of knee surgery. I appreciated the kind and supportive staff and doctor.

Jeff took time to explain everything, showed pictures of what my knees looked like and what they will look like after the surgery. He answered all of my questions and I never felt rushed. The dr I consulted with prior did none of that. Thanks Jeff

I underwent 2 full knee replacements within a year. I am very happy with the results. I was pleasantly surprised (and relieved) that the scars on both knees are fairly minimal. Dr. Peretz’s skills and interactions with me were excellent. His team was very responsive during the recovery process.I recommend him highly.
