Cleveland Clinic physicians and scientists may collaborate with the pharmaceutical or medical device industries to help develop medical breakthroughs or provide medical expertise or education. Cleveland Clinic strives to make scientific advances that will benefit patient care and support outside relationships that promise public benefit. In order for the discoveries of Cleveland Clinic physicians' and scientists' laboratories and investigations to benefit the public, these discoveries must be commercialized in partnership with industry. As experts in their fields, Cleveland Clinic physicians and scientists are often sought after by industry to consult, provide expertise and education.
To assure professional and commercial integrity in such matters, Cleveland Clinic maintains a program that reviews these collaborations and, when appropriate, puts measures in place to minimize bias that may result from ties to industry. Cleveland Clinic publicly discloses the names of companies when (i) its physicians/scientists receive $5,000 or more per year (or, in rare cases, equity or stock options) for speaking and consulting, (ii) its physicians/scientists serve as a fiduciary, (iii) its physicians/scientists receive or have the right to receive royalties or (iv) its physicians/ scientists hold any equity interest for the physician's/scientist's role as inventor, discoverer, developer, founder or consultant.* In publicly disclosing this information, Cleveland Clinic tries to provide information as accurately as possible about its physicians' and scientists' connections with industry.
As of 12/7/2020, Dr. Perala has reported no financial relationship with industry that is applicable to this listing. In general, patients should feel free to contact their doctor about any of the relationships and how the relationships are overseen by Cleveland Clinic.

Public Health Service-Reportable Financial Conflicts of Interest. Cleveland Clinic scientists and physicians engage in basic, translational and clinical research activities, working to solve health problems, enhance patient care and improve quality of life for patients.

I loved how easy, convenient, and safe (RE this Covid environment) this was. I was able to get my inhaler refilled very easily. Dr. Reid was wonderful.
Reviewed on Oct 2, 2020
I was well taken care of quickly by Dr. Reid. My favorite part of online care was getting it quickly, but more importantly being able to followup as well because the Dr was added to my contacts in Mychart for messaging. my least favorite is the $55 charge. In my opinion, this should be much lower since the ability to serve in large volume should lower the price. Would have cost me nothing if I went in to the office because of insurance coverage.

Even though it was 8:30 at night, we were able to connect with a provider. Being a mom of 4 and starting school this week, we were already pressed for time and did not have time for a traditional doctor appointment. It was so great to be able to take care of the issue on our time in our home.

Dr. Perala is the kindness and the most caring physician I've had the pleasure of meeting. His sincere concern and thorough medical assessment are proof of his genuine dedication to his patients' wellbeing. When first meeting Dr. Perala, I was desperately struggling with a very unusual and resilient infection, requiring multiple treatments and tests. At times, I felt helpless and uncurable, frustrated from the constant pain I was experiencing, yet never did I doubt Dr. Perala's medical judgment and course of action. He was (virtually) there with me every step of the way and made sure I was able to receive all the necessary tests and treatments, a daunting task considering it all took place during the peak of the COVID pandemic. Dr. Perala's commitment and compassion are why they put the word "family" in family medicine. I'm proud to call him my doctor.
