He seemed like a nice guy. But I feel I was treated differently because I was a workers comp case. He looked at my CT scan, tested my reflexes, referred me to neurology only to be sent back to him. He dismissed me and gave me a MMI rating of 0%. I have been a RN for over 20 years, my work injury has left me unable to return to the shape I was in prior to my fall. There is no way I can return to my previous work. Help me make sense of this.
He is a good doctor.
He is the absolute best!
Good visit with Dr Parker. Good bedside manner and very courteous.
Had leg pain before surgery and no leg pain after surgery. Would recommend Dr Parker for the best back dr. Job well done thank you Dr Parker
I am well pleased with doctor Parker. I have had three surgeries and has made my life better. I highly recommend doctor Parker and his team.
Did a poor job addressing my issues, but had no problems addressing my weight. 3 times. Walked out of there with an order for PT, instructions to "do something about the weight", and a follow up appointment. Weight discrimination at its finest.
He is professional yet approachable. He listens to me and values my input. I recommend him for your back pain and needs 100%.
He’s very detailed in explaining the symptoms and surgeries I need for my back and nice staff
Did not listen too my concern dismissed me back too full duty while I still have pain in my back. No empathy at all. I would not recommend him to noone.
