He is outstanding
He listens carefully and seems as though he truly cares. He has a great bedside manner and never made us feel rushed. Our procedure was scheduled very quickly and he planned ahead for follow-up. Very organized and thoughtful.
provider was very dismissive and was inching towards the door as I was still asking questions. I understand for him the dx was not critical, however, for a parent it's a little different.
Dr. Park listened to our concerns and asked helpful questions. When it was time for the exam of my 2 month old, Dr. Park was very professional and efficient, which was appreciated since my daughter doesn't like anyone touching her ears. I was also pleasantly surprised at how soon we were able to schedule the minor surgery she needs.
I saw him outside of the doctor's office a few days after the appointment and he was very kind to stop and talk to me and my mom for a few minutes to follow-up and make sure I got a surgery scheduled. It was so nice that he cared even outside of a doctor's office. :)
I would highly recommend Dr. Park. I felt like he really took the time to make sure he explained everything and listened and answered all of our concerns and questions.
Dr. Albert H Park, MD is highly professional. I appreciate his honesty and clarity describing his medical procedure. He doesn't perform any procedure unless it's necessary, especially if it won't produce a significant change or improvement in the patient's life. He strives to minimize unnecessary discomfort and suffering for his patients. I appreciate that he informs us parents about the procedure, listen to my suggestions and concerns, and involves me in making the best decision for my daughter's healthcare. Dr Park to me is one of the best! I highly recommend him.
Muy buen doctor
Dr. Park has been fantastic in caring for my child and her needs from being born a micro preemie. He is on top of what needs to be done to keep her healthy.
We have a complicated situation and Dr. Park was very direct with us. I like his no-frills approach.
We came for a tongue tie, but left with more information regarding my son's health. A lot of new information and a plan regarding his health was brought forth. Very appreciative and grateful for Dr Park!

Dr. Park was truly incredible. Treated my daughter with respect and care. While at the same time, making me as a mother feel important, respected and truly cared about as well.

My daughter was in extreme pain because of her ear and dr park listened and fit her in the next day for surgery. We truly appreciate dr park
Excellent approach to correcting problem with patient.
The doctor didn't not seem very caring and offered very little solutions
There were no patients in the waiting room, but I had feeling that Doctor was in a rush. He was almost trying to run away from room as soon as possible.
Muy bien me explico claramente lo q tenia la nia y el porque todo muy bien
doctor Park was so good with my son! he checked on his stuffed animal he brought and did everything first to his toy and THEN to my son. it was adorable and my son LOVED it. it made him giggle and feel at ease.
Dr. Park is wonderful and we have the upmost confidence in him.
Dr Park is highly knowledgeable in his specialty. He's soft spoken, mild mannered and very gentle with his patients. He has exceeded my expectations in his care of my daughter since she first went to him at age 3 months. Dr Park, you are the best. Thank you.
Very good, getting straight to the point and explaining, does a very good job at his job.
Most caring and patient Dr that takes the time to explain the problem and treatment throughly with precision and clarity. He successfully detected and alleviated my sons ear issues.
Dr Park is an amazing, knowledgeable doctor and has helped us understand and navigate our daughters care. He always makes us feel comfortable and never makes us feel rushed. He takes his time to make sure we are happy and have had all our questions answered to our desire.
Dr. Park is an excellent doctor. He is very thorough. He takes the time to explain things well. I highly recommend him.
I felt TALKED AT, rather than consulted/communicated with, through not just this appointment but the whole process since my son didn't pass his newborn hearing test. It reaffirmed my distaste for the medical field.
I was shocked that we waited 45 min but then dr park saw us for less than 10 min
He is amazing and my son looks forward to coming in to see Dr. Park. He takes his time and really explains everything so you can understand and listens to any concerns I have had.
Dr park was very knowledgeable, attentive and caring. He took time to discuss my child's condition, answer questions and made a clear plan of care moving forward. Good experience. Will continue to see him for my child's ongoing care.
Very attentive doctor [TRANSLATED]
Excellent in his care, he helps with your concerns and give you answers to all your questions. I definitely recommend him 100 %.
Dr Park was amazing! He went through every detail very carefully. He made sure we understood. We left with a plan. He even wrote it out for us! The office called first thing the next morning to get us started. His nurses were delightful and kind. We feel we are in the very best hands.
Exelent professional!
We appreciated his concern and care for our son. He listened to our concerns and then explained everything we needed to know well. He was very good with our 3 year old.
Dr. Park was very kind and patient with my son and myself. He explained everything so I understood and was very thorough.
Awesome
I love that he expressed his thought process out loud so we could hear his concerns and hopes for treating out son.
We are so grateful our son saw Dr. Park. He not only knew exactly what was wrong with him, he set expectations for us and helped guide us through the process. Our baby has thrived since his surgery and I can't recommend him enough to anyone else who is dealing with infant airway issues.
Dr. Park is always willing to listen to any questions and answer them very clearly for all of us. My daughter always feels very comfortable with him and is willing to talk as well.
Grateful to have our son treated by Dr. Park. Addressed our concerns and helping find best practice solutions.
He broke everything down, answered all our questions and listened to my answers before responding.
Really appreciated Dr Park's thorough, detailed explanation and the notes he wrote for me, especially with action items for each of us. I left with clarity and understanding instead of confusion and overwhelm.
bad experience. didn't even speak to my daughter. was rude and very short with me
Extremely caring Doctor who wanted the best for our daughter. He immediately helped us get a plan in place to get her a hearing aid as quickly as possible and brought in multiple other specialists to rule anything else out
Dr. Park is an excellent doctor. He is knowledgeable, thorough and cares.
In my experience with Albert Park, who has been treating my daughter for about nine years, it has been very good. He is a doctor who inspires confidence and has knowledge and experience in what he does. [TRANSLATED]
Great service
We have had such a great experience as patients of Dr Park. He did great at explaining my sons surgery and being patient with him during his post op appointments.
Dr. Park has been totally involved with my 3 year olds hearing since her birth. She was born a micro preemie and so her ears have needed lots of attention to ensure we catch any issues should they arise. At three years in... an issue came at a hearing test!! He was able to work her in the next week and get her diagnosed. We are scheduling surgery and are very happy Dr Park will be taking care of our child.
Thank you so much for caring for the well-being of my child to prevent surgery! He was brave to clean my daughter's ears when she was screaming and wiggling.
We waited quite a while to be able to get an appointment with Dr. Park. We feel confident that it was worth the wait. Dr. Park spent a lot of time with us, he was very thorough and we know that he will be able to help my son. I highly recommend Dr. Park. All of his staff was great too.
I've had good appointments with Dr. Park and I've had not great appointments. This appointment felt rushed, I didn't feel like he explained things very well, but I also felt he was in a hurry to be somewhere else.
He is a fantastic doctor and made us feel more comfortable with the planned treatment for our son.
