Dr. Pero was very thorough and made sure to answer all my questions. All of his staff is top-notch too! Everyone was polite and helpful. Gleat experience!
Dr. Pero is very thorough and very informative. My son praised him highly on explanations about his ear problem and how and what he was going to do to take care of it. I think he is THE best ENT Doc around the North Dallas area & his work with facial plastics.
My wife has severe sinus disease and by far Dr. Pero has been the only Dr. we have come across that looked at every avenue before finally deciding surgery was indeed needed. He was very patient with my wife. Answered every question we had. He took the time and helped lower some of my wife's anxiety. That means the world to us......
