PerrinMD: Khanh Perrin MD

I have been a patient of Dr. Khanh Perrin since 2012 and want to pass along my very positive experience for others who might benefit. When I first went to see her over a decade ago, I was the archetypical busy business executive with all the typical symptoms one might expect from such a person in his mid-40’s: Lots of stress, lots of travel, poor dietary habits, irregular fitness program, tired and frankly, burned out. I watched as my formerly athletic physique slipped away and negative mindset began to permeate my view on life. My wife encouraged me to get out of the traditional medical system’s approach of the once-a-year physical where everything “looks normal” and I was told to just take my statin medication and “deal with it.” I knew I was not optimized physically, but didn’t know what to do to get back there. I can say without equivocation, that my life began to change with my first visit to Dr. Perrin. She started me on HRT (Testosterone replacement) and Thyroid support prescriptions. She also connected the linearity between my lifestyle choices (alcohol + diet) and my lack of physical well-being in a way that finally resonated with me and began a productive journey to health and well-being. Fast forward to today, where in my late 50’s I am stronger, leaner, more mentally agile, with higher stamina than perhaps I had in my late 20’s/early 30’s! From when I first began my journey with Dr. Perrin, I went from 30%+ body fat to now where I’m at 13% body fat with far more lean muscle. My mental acuity and stamina are far superior to where I was in my early to mid-40’s. The general malaise and brain fog is gone and where I tended to view things with a glass half-empty mindset, I now approach things with a positive, “let’s make things happen” mental framework. Dr. Perrin truly cares about my health and my journey to wellness. I am continually refining and improving with her guidance. She is constantly offering new ideas and innovations that help me as I improve to new levels of fitness. I cannot rate Dr. Perrin highly enough. If this is the pathway you are considering in your own journey, give her a call and get started. Dr. Perrin, and her great team have my highest advocacy and have truly changed my life for the better!

It's weird getting older and going through all the changes, but I'm not loving the alternative (right?) so Yayy! Dr. Perrin is kind, and intelligent, very calm, and curious about your specific data points. It's never a one size fits all type of interaction. Doctor's appointments can feel like you're talking to AI in a lab coat. Like they're looking through you, and their eyes are blank because their mind is somewhere else. I mean, they know what to say, and they say - t h a t - because they don't see you as being different than patients x, y and z - who came before you that morning. However! This is not the case of Dr. Perrin. She thinks about what you say and how you answer questions. Her assistant takes great notes and you can feel she's really aiming to get your mind and body to run at it's best, and this means the world to me. She's lovely, and I'm so glad I found her. And I found her through google no less... So I hope you take that to heart if you're researching for a great doctor.

This review is for the staff not Dr. Perrin. Dr. Perrin’s an amazing doctor but over the course of this last year I found it nearly impossible to get in touch with her. I’ve sent emails and followed up with a phone call (because that’s their preferred method) and email follow ups to which the reply I’ve gotten is 1st we will get back to you and then it’s she’s really busy. I’m getting the runaround. I call so that I can get hold of Dr. Perrin only to be told ”Did you email her”. I was told that her messages (all) are screened and they only pass in what I’m being treated for (or relevant treatment, honestly I can’t remember). But the other question is, how do you know what she’s treating me for exactly? So if I can’t get hold of my doctor and if the receptionist is self diagnosing for me, how am I supposed to get the treatment that I actually need that I actually pay for out of pocket? It’s extremely disappointing and frustrating.
