When my "regular doctor" retired I was a bit concerned that I would be able to find a "new" doctor who would be "as good" as my "old" doctor. Dr. Michael Purkis quickly dispelled any of my concerns. I simply cannot believe some of the negative comments I have read here regarding Dr. Purkis. He is very professional l and appears to be highly knowledgeable and proficient in his profession. One of the first things I experienced is that Dr. Purkis is very "up front" and honest. He "tells it like it is" without mincing words. Per... read more

After a long string of specialists trying and failing and doing many tests, we went to Dr. Purkis and he diagnosed my husband's issue right away. He's really smart and kind.

Horrible what a disgusting excuse of a human being to even be labeled as a doctor. Doesn’t respect patients especially women and will not listen to your concerns. Stay away FAR away.

I went to the ER that evening and received a Covid test without requesting one within 5 hours of my conversation with Purkis. His so-called annual physical exam took less than 90 seconds. Fortunately he currently has an awesome Nurse Practiti... read more

Less than ZERO stars. He just 'fired me' with a letter in the mail because I didn't choose the course of treatment he recommended for my osteoporosis. I called 2 separate times this past week due to extreme side effects from the flu shot. Both times he had his staff tell me to go to the ER. I wanted to see my Primary Care Physician, not sit and suffer in an ER for 7 hours and receive enormous bills. I never did think he had a good 'bedside' manner which is why I mostly saw his NP. So in a nutshell, he refused to give me care... read more

My back was hurting so bad that I had to crawl at times. His solution was for me to buy knee pads.

I took my elderly father for a appointment. He had two previous appointments and the office called and canceled twice one apt because the Dr was running behind another one because their system was down! We showed up for his appointment and updated his insurance information with the front office and we put down that he had a l new secondary insurance. The front office came back and said they didn't take his secondary insurance and they wouldn’t be able to see him? I asked if they could just bill his primary insurance and we c... read more

Dr. Purkis has been my primary care physician for 3 years. I recently saw him for my annual physical. Dr. Purkis and the staff are excellent in the care they provide for patients. He has my highest recommendation for anyone that would be looking for a family physician.
