“Dr. Parker is a great doctor who uses his terrific listening skills, medical explanations, and thoroughness to determine the next steps to resolve my problem. I didn’t feel rushed and left his office very impressed with not only Dr. Parker but all of his very professional and efficient support staff I had the pleasure to interface with before, during, and after my appointment. I’m so glad I drove the extra 20 minutes to go to his office and have this great practice helping me with treatment and healing. I highly recommend Dr. Parker and his practice.”

“Dr. Parker was friendly and instantly made me feel comfortable to explain my situation to him. Since my visit was not the result of a typical injury, but rather an uncommon bone disease, he took the time to listen to me and understand my concerns even when he was not familiar with the disease itself. In between our visits, he proactively researched it himself, having an even better understanding for our second visit. Dr. Parker made me feel like he genuinely cared about me and about getting me help. I would highly recommend him.”
