The Perkins Pediatric Clinic

09/24/2025

Well, as sad as this is, the clinic has closed it’s doors for the final time. Mike loved ALL his kiddos and I’m sure he’s watching over them now from Heaven. Kiss your babies, love your babies and teach them about Jesus! Thanks to EVERYONE in the community, especially a special thanks to Jeannie and Rachel for sticking by his side even after he was gone. They did everything to get the medical records to parents and box up everything to close up. I pray you all find new fantastic docs for your little ones 🙏🏼

Thank you Again for all the help and prayers during this difficult time. Shannon Perkins 💗

Wow...the dreadful last post for me (Jeannie) on this page .....First let me say a huge Thank You for each and everyone of you for your patience, condolences, memories, thoughts, and prayers....When I tell you the ending of this chapter of my life has been trying, hard,difficult, definitely not for the faint of heart...I mean it.....This has been one of the most difficult things I've ever done in my life.....I could've said on July 26th I was finished, but I told Dr. P I would be here till the end and that's what I intended on doing.......Never did I anticipate the end would be like this.....but God had different plans....and we know and trust that his plans/timing are all on time (His Time)....Unfortunately the end for me at the PPC has come......I will be closing the door for the last time this Friday, September 05, 2025 at 2:00....Please continue to keep the family both home and work in your prayers....Always know we loved your babies....and will miss them dearly......As far as medical records....let me say....Medical records in Pediatrics is a little different then Medical Records with specialist. Honestly the only thing you need to make sure you have is a Shot Record unless your on medications like for ADD/ADHD, Seizures, Bipolar.....you know, anything where you have to get filled every month....so If you don't get your records, please don't worry....after we close if you need a shot record you should be able to reach out to your local health unit for that. Again, Thank you to each of you!!! Now off to the next chapter!!!!

Unfortunately I am unable to reach each person due to the number of families that entrusted Dr Perkins with their child's care. Please know that we would love to say how much we loved and cared for your babies. The office is currently open from 10-3, closed for lunch from 12-1. You will need to choose what provider you would like to transfer to and either sign a release at their office or you can come here to sign the release, whichever is easier for you.....Again, please accept my apologies for not reaching out and pray for us as we navigate this next chapter. Honestly we are all at a loss....... Please keep his family both home and work in your prayers....and all the patients that he saw....

It is with great sadness that we announce the sudden loss of Dr. Michael Perkins on July 25, 2025. The office will be closed next week to give office staff time to grieve and process this terrible loss. We will update this page once the office has reopened so that parents may sign a records request to have your child’s records transferred to the provider of your choice. Please be patient as we all navigate through this process. Please keep his family and work family in your prayers for the days ahead.
