We absolutely loved Dr. Perkins Tift. She was wonderful with my daughter and talked to her as an equal not a child. She listened to everything my daughter had to say and was very patient with us and all the questions we had asked. I would highly recommend her to anyone who has a child with orthopedic concerns.

We met Dr Tift for the first time. My son injured his elbow and we got a recommendation from a friend to see Dr Tift. Coming in, the front office and nursing staff were nice and we did not have to wait long in the lobby. Dr Tift was very nice and caring. She went over the x-rays with us, showing what more than likely happened. He had injured his growth plate on his elbow (possibly a fracture but not really visible in the xray) and as a precaution, his arm was placed in a cast. When my son started crying because he thought that he would miss out on some activities, she took the time to talk to him and help him feel better. I'm so glad that we were able to find such and kind and caring doctor.

I've now been here 3 times. Each time I leave feeling well informed and comfortable with the treatment plan. Great with kids. Staff is friendly and comforting.

Wonderful Orthopedic Dr.!!! She saw my grandchild today regarding pigeon toed feet. We were definitely happy of her diagnosis. She was very informative and also made my granddaughter comfortable. My granddaughter fears Drs. and with Dr. Tift she was happy and comfortable and didn't cry whatsoever. Thank you for seeing my Granddaughter Dr. Tift!!

excellent service! friendly and very informative. great quality care. highly recommend!

Wow wow wow I can't even, I don't even know how to describe this doctors AMAZING ENERGY... I mean she was such a refreshing vibe to our day. Absolutely amazing. Don't take my word for it, just book your appointment with her and see for yourself. The mother of a kid who punched a wall and fractured his finger, who is also a teenager so you know how that is. P.S. He loved her!!

Great bed side manner. Really understands young athletes. Also, very thoughtful and cautious about remedies, physical therapy, and further assessments and medications. Though we hate to be injured, we immediately feel reassured after a visit to Dr. Tift

She is a great doctor, it is that simple. But more importantly she is a better person. She really genuinely cares about all of her patients and facilitates the most effective treatment plan that fits every families budget. In our appointment, I will be honest, we were very frustrated due to the fact we had waited over an hour. Every 15 minutes that passed after waiting an half an hour, we considered leaving and saying forget it. But as soon as she walked in the room all the energy changed. She was this instant bright light of love, joy, compassion, and positivity. She made what once feel like an old dark/dirty room in a building from the 70's, turn into a magical place of healing and understanding. I wish she had some more help to make her work load a little less, or maybe a twin or a clone. But until then, if you can muster the wait time like us, I promise you won't be disappointed.

Dr. Perkins Tift is simply the BEST! Her personality is very warm and she has a soothing way around kids- my son felt very comfortable during his visits for his fractured hand which resulted from playing rugby. Also, Shelley Howell (PA) was amazing. She sat through a hundred questions with my boy and ensured a very good experience. Shelly took additional xrays and thoroughly explained what she found, which required a cast for bit longer. The staff they have to set casts is also great! Thanks Dr Perkins for your wonderful work and your great team!
