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.

Arrogant and Ignorant - The Worst Doctor
Dr. Parker was the doctor on call went I went into labor with my 1st child. I was in extreme pain and she completely disregarded my birth-plan and request for pain medication. After laboring with out pain meds for a full day she said, "I usually stick around for these thing but I have plans tonight so I'm sending you home." Took out my IV, the probe out of my baby's head, made me dress-while having labor pains-and sent me home. That's not what I wanted and you should have seen the way the nurses were looking a her, biting their tongues. She promised if I went home she'd finally give me pain meds. Then when it was time to go, she refused. After a very painful night, the next day my doctor was there and immediately gave me an epidural and an ultrasound which showed the baby was posterior (head down but facing my abdomen) and not going to come out on it's own. I then had an emergency C-section. Dr. Parker's ignorance cause me a full day of incredible pain and endangered my child.

I’ve been sitting on this comment for awhile. Mostly because I had hoped Dr. Parker was no longer practicing! I am an RN that has had a serious chronic illness for 40 years. Unfortunately, that means I know my body very well. I saw Dr. Parker for what I was positive was kidney stones. She was rude, condescending, shushed me several times, and pretty much told me I was crazy for insisting it was stones! After I insisted on a CT, I had 5 stones right where I said they were! No apology from MD!

Dr. Parker was very nice. She listened and was helpful with recommendations. She understood that I had done a lot on my own to try to help my foot and was happy to refer me to a podiatrist. I felt like she cared and I would definitely see her again.

Worst Provider I have ever encountered. After mtiple ER visits and 12 clinic visits in three months, I was told by Dr. Parker that my symptoms of fainting and losing consciousness are all in my head- yes she literally said that. My last conversation with her ended by her telling me I had a better chance of being struck by lightening than to have the condition I thought I had (which I have since been diagnosed with). She refused to refer me to a specialist and failed to inform me of abdomal tests
