Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I had my thyroid surgery 3 years ago and I was very nervous about it. Everything went well and had never any problem since. As far as Dr. parker i think he is never in rush , he always explains you the facts and he is very experienced and knowledgeable. He is very good doctor .

Worst experience ever. The staff is horrible. He never keep appointments. The lady that called was so rude to the point I ended up flipped out after I told them I was not be returning and hung up like 5 minutes later the office manager called my phone back to harass me. I told her if she called again I was pressing charges. Dr Parker’s office is Trash. I recommend to no one!!

Dr. Parker treated me with condescension and ridicule, and as if I was a waste of his time. He did not take my concerns seriously. When I told him he was making me uncomfortable and that I would like to leave, he actually blocked the door to prevent me from leaving, and I had to push my way around him. Horrible experience. I will be filing official complaints with the hospital, my insurance company, and the medical board.

Dr. Parker took care of my daughter's tonsil removal and was fantastic. He is knowledgeable and was very helpful in her post surgery care.

Dr. Parker is a nice doctor. His staff is absolutely terrible, and considering you spend much of your time as a patient with the staff.... it was a terrible experience. I had T&A surgery 2 years ago with Dr. Parker and the whole experience sucked. To be honest... I have not had that bad of an experience with a doctor and his staff, ever.
