Please note: My "fair" responses above concerned the initial (I assume resident or intern) provider who first spoke with us. His response to my questions was not clear - although it was long and detailed without really answering my questions in a way I could make sense of. The Provider with whom our appointment was scheduled was much better at explaining in terms that we could understand.

Dr Parker is an extremely kind, knowledgable man, and always prompt. I like him!

February 11, 2013

Wonderful!

Dr Parker placed in my file instruction for future visits with my primary care midwife to include a blood draw so we can follow up the concern. This eliminates extra visits to his office. I will only need to be seen by one provider after a final visit in 6months if all appears normal.

Dr. Parker gave me the time to absorb things and ask questions...will see him again soon

This was my first experience with Dr. Parker and it was positive overall.

June 25, 2012

Dr. Parker and Andrea Schindler took more time with me than any other health care provider at their levels has since I have been sick. They answered questions and I didn't feel that they were in a hurry to see other patients.

Best doctor-patient relationship I've had since initial diagnosis.
