    April 10, 2026 - "Dr Perumalswami is honestly my favorite doctor I have ever had. The best. Words cannot explain how fortunate I am to have her lead the team that cares for me. So happy with them all. She has helped me more than she realizes with my condition and more importantly my mind. [...]"

    October 9, 2025 - "I believe Dr. Perumalswami is a wonderful doctor and person. I'm currently navigating a very emotional journey. I understand the doctor is supposed to evaluate my mind as well as my body. But I think she went above and beyond talking with me and really saying the right things that I needed to hear. I not only left my appointment feeling good about my condition, but feeling a relief of ease or piece of mind if a situation I'm trying to understand. I'm very thankful that Dr Perumalswami is on my care team at UM Hospital"
