I have Never Been to a Doctor that Did Not Examine My Body!! Yeah he looked at the bump on my butt because I pulled my pants down but he just said to take Tylenol or Ibuprofen and I told him about my stomach and it Did Not Matter!! Then I asked for a steroid shot in my butt and He said and I quote “We Don’t Give Steroid Shots in this office.”
I Have Gotten and my Husband have gotten Steroid Shots in your office from Dr Elias!! He Shot Up My Knee!! I just wanted some relief because I have been suffering since November 1!!!
What A Wasted Trip to Thibodaux!!
Then we drive to the pharmacy & No RX!! Why Didn’t his Nurse call it in!!! I know y’all have other patients but I Don’t Care!! This Pain is unbelievable!!

Absolute Angel. Dr Parks has been the most knowledgeable Dr I've had the pleasure of meeting. After years of unsuccessful surgeries, Dr Parks knew exactly what was needed to help me. I can't thank him enough. Incredible bedside manners with so much patience.
