Over 13 years of treatment with other doctors, chiropractic adjustments, epidurals etc... On morphine & oxycontin pills with no pain relief. There was no other doctor who was willing to do anything. Then I met with Dr. Argires and he felt that he could get me back to about 80% normal. He recommended a fusion of the joint since there was to much damage to the joint to have a disk replacement. His hospital staff at Lancaster regional hospital were all great. Surgery went well and went home in 2 days. I did everything that he said I needed to do as part of post op recuperation walks, used my back brace, and did the physical therapy that was the worst part ( the stretching really kills me). I am now better that the promised 80% and am using aspirin and Tylenol for what pain I have left. This is fantastic!!!!!!!! Thank you Dr. Argires. Its been almost a year since surgery, & I cant believe I have my Life back!!!!!

Perry Argires is not in it for the patient, it seems he's in it for the money. The staff is very rude. My fiancee has had 2 lumbar fusions by Arigires and will probably have to have another. We are waiting til the 90 days are up so we can go to another doctor. We always feel as though we're talking to an autioneer with him. it's in and out and on your way you go. He is in constant pain and they still tell him that he's 95% good and good to go. After this last surgery one of the nurses decided to take the surgical tapes off of his incision and opened up his incision. DUH, they are to come off on their own. Now he has problems with that along with his back. ON his follow up appointment after his surgery, (with the doctor) we didn't even see Arigires, we saw someone that we have never seen before. Obviously they messed up somewhere because he was taling about injections that my fiance was to give to himself when he got out of the hospital but they never said anything about it.

I found him to be arrogant, condescending and lacking compassion. My wife had to have a second back surgery by another physician to correct the problem which Dr. Argires created. I would never recommend him.

I had a neck fusion due to a car accident. Dr Perry was great. I was in MUCH less pain after the surgery, and am very grateful to him for all his help and wonderful care. Thanks Dr Perry!
Very good, caring doctor. Does not want to see anyone suffer. Will fix what is wrong with least amount of pain and discomfort. Has just moved, so do not know about new staff.
