Having treated patients over the years and witnessing their frustration and difficulties dealing with Peripheral Neuropathy, Dr. Perkins decided to focus her practice in this area. She is the only physician on the Treasure Coast that limits her practice entirely to Peripheral Neuropathy.
Dr. Perkins utilizes her training in Functional Medicine to determine the possible underlying medical conditions that may lead to Peripheral Neuropathy, which may be related to Diabetes, Chemotherapy, Infection, and/or Medications. Using a comprehensive approach when evaluating a patient, she maintains an understanding of how all the systems in the body work together.
Patients often come into Neuropathy and Laser Center very frustrated and as a “last resort”, often after being told there was no hope for improvement, that they’d just have to “live with” problems associated with Peripheral Neuropathy.
Our knowledge and understanding of Neuropathy has greatly improved over the last decade! Today, the National Institute of Health recognizes that Peripheral Neuropathy can often be treated and managed if found and treated in time.
At our center, Dr. Perkins utilizes many treatment Protocols, without drugs or surgery, that are highly effective in reducing pain, numbness and improving balance.
