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.

Great experience. Wonderful manner.
Dr Parker helped work through the issues so that no surgery was warranted. If I need a surgeon Dr. Parker is the one!

Great Doctor
Dr. Parker was very informative through the whole process and procedure. You knew what he was doing and why. He was also more than half the cost of other Surgeons I received quotes from. Would highly recommend him.

Great from start to finish
Dr. Parker and his team did a great job on my hernia repair. Never waited more than two minutes in his office, he explained everything clearly, hernia repair was successful and post op was easy. He really takes the time to answer your questions, which seems to be more and more rare. I waited to do this procedure because past laparoscopic surgeries I’ve had took a while to feel better but this one was much easier. I felt fine after and normally I feel very groggy and tired. Definitely recommend Dr Parker and his team.

Happy I met Dr. Parker
I was referred to Dr. Parker by my PCP to have a lipoma removed. During the consultation, Dr. Parker was very detailed in explaining what a lipoma was, why they may return (a different surgeon removed the first one) and what to expect pre-and post-op surgery. After leaving his office, I felt very informed, comfortable and reassured. The day of the surgery, he explained again in detail what he would be doing and what to expect, etc. He made me feel extra comfortable. He has excellent bedside manners. After surgery, I had no pain at all. Even once I got home and during my recovery period, I had no pain. I was very impressed. My post-op appt was quick and again, he was very detailed in how to care for the scar as it continued to heal. I’m so happy I met Dr. Parker. I highly recommend him if you’re considering or planning to have surgery soon.

Caring Doctor!
Dr. Parker is very caring and listens to his patients. The front office staff is very welcoming and they are always willing to help. I do not want surgery ever again, but if I do need it...I know where to go. Surgery went well and he answered all of my questions and concerns.

Robot Laparoscopic Ventral Hernia Surgery
Dr Parker repaired two ventral hernias in surgery performed on me nine days ago. I couldn't be more pleased with the entire process. In our initial consultation, Dr. Parker explained the repair process, noting that he wouldn't know exactly the extent of repair needed until inside and able to explore the damage. The surgery went very well. In the follow-up visit a week after the surgery, he fully explained exactly what he found and how he repaired it. He patiently and fully answered all of my questions. I have confidence that he did an excellent job. The healing process has gone smoothly and as forecast. In addition to being an excellent surgeon, Dr. Parker is quite personable. He fully explains things and earns a great deal of trust. He is on the top of my list for surgery. I highly recommend him.

laparoscopic cholecystectomy & umbilical hernia
My wife & I meet Dr. Parker after CT scan showed I had slug in my gallbladder & a umbilical hernia. He explained what to expect before, during and after the surgery. He explained the risk and possible side effects, but most of all made my wife & I feel comfortable and assured. The hospital staff were great! Operation went as expected from what they tell me. I had very little pain and was up and going in no time. My wife & I would highly recommend Dr. Parker and the Presbyterian Hospital Flower Mound to anyone. I want to thank Dr. Parker and his staff for their help through this stressful time.

Hernia repair
Recently Dr. Parker took care of me. He is personable and seems like he is not hurried when he is consulting with you. Dr. Parker came highly recommended to me by my personal care physician, and I was in no way disappointed. The hospital he operates in was also excellent. I happily recommend Dr. Parker.

Outstanding surgeon!
I was referred to Dr. Parker for a biopsy that needed to be done quickly. I had my consultation visit on Monday and he rearranged his schedule so that the surgery could be the following day. In the consultation, he thoroughly explained the procedure and risks involved, listened to my questions and put me at ease. The surgery went just as described. As soon as the pathology report came in, Dr. Parker called me and discussed the findings. I would definitely recommend Dr. Parker to my family and friends. His surgical skills are exceptional and he truly cares about his patients.
