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.

Encouraged
Doctor Parks and his nurse made me feel at ease and both explained my situation and treatment options. They both answered all of my questions and together we came up with a personalized plan moving forward. I left feeling very encouraged and hopeful that after following Dr. Parks recommendations a much improved quality of life is in my future.

Dr.Parks has replaced both my right knee and left hip. He is very kind and professional. I would recommend him to anyone who needs hip or knee replacements. And the scares hardly show.

Worth the wait.
I have only been a patient of Dr. Parks for about 5 months but he is very good. He takes time to listen and answers any questions I have. He offers a few different treatment options and gives me the opportunity to choose the one best for me. He is very thorough when explaining test results, again answering questions. Sometimes the earliest appointment is two or more weeks out but worth the wait. Dr. Parks and his staff are very kind and I would certainly recommend him.

Definitely would recommend Dr Parks to any body!!!
Dr Parks came in with a smile and just made you know that he cares about his patients. He listens to you and answers what ever questions that you ask. I have several friends that Dr Parks has performed surgery’s for them and every one that I’ve talked with just think he’s a great man! All of them were very pleased with their outcome!
