Dr. Paul Parsons, MD

Dr. Parsons did my rotator cuff surgery. When I first went to see him he looked at my x-ray from the hospital and diagnosed a broken shoulder blade and told me to come back in 3 weeks. When I returned I still could not lift my arm. He got an MRI that day and did my surgery the following Monday. That was 9 years ago. I am having problems with the same shoulder and looking at another surgery. I wish we had reviews like this back then.

Years ago this doctor did orthoscopic surgery on my knee for a torn meniscus. For the next 6 weeks, I had problems. Begged him until he agreed to do a CT scan. He didn't want to and finally agreed. He was condescending, arrogant and insensitive. What he found is the blood supply was disrupted at the site of the surgery and some of the bone died. He did another surgery to try and reattach the cartilage to the bone. It was not successful. He never took responsibility for messing up my knee. Just said, sometimes this happens. I was then fitted for a brace. Months later, I asked how much longer would I have to wear the brace. Oh, he said....you'll have to wear it until you have your knee replaced. I went to another doctor for the replacement. When I requested my records, he changed my last visit notes. It was in different font size from all other notes stating I had demanded narcotics and he refused me. It was a lie. It's called CYA. I would never use him.

Went to this dr with a ganglia cyst and was told it was new mothers wrist i'm not a new mother and the Dr never touched my wrist to even examine me. He completely dismissed me. That was 1 year ago, this past Thursday I had to have surgery to remove the golf ball size cyst that had attached itself to the tendons and ligaments and artery and bones. Bed side manner was horrible as well.
