Terrible service they made me wait in the waiting room for 50 minutes to come back and spent four minutes with us. Took an x-ray and reread my injury and sent me to another doctor terrible but never ever recommend him for anything

He did a knee replacement on my mom June 2019 and she has more trouble now than before the surgery and is in a lot of pain and shes not the type to complain about pain! I told her he had bad reviews and to get another Dr. But because 2 of my cousins had no problem with Dr. Parker she trusted him. I said mother Dr. Leak and Dr. Parker have lots of bad reviews and friends of mine said how bad they are. Now shes in constant pain and wishes the one time she didnt listen to me she had!

I am very sad and disappointed with this medical facility. I am an individual who is on disability. Unfortunately, due to our wonderful Congress, I have to be on disability for 2 years before being eligible for Medicare!!! I was approved the first time I applied with NO attorney and in 66 days. I definitely need Medicare. Im shocked and I am in despair that this office would charge a self-pay, disabled person $250.00 to be seen for 6 minutes. He looked at the X-rays that I brought and didnt even look at my foot. Its so hard for me to understand why a person who is a self pay and disabled

Misdiagnosed a broken ankle as a sprain in 2009, had to seek out new provider due to persistent pain and weakness a year after. Ended up having multiple surgeries to fix non-healing cartilage over a period of 4 years. Still live with pain and weakness to this day. This doctor is a joke. Dont go here for injuries.

Dr. Parker has taken care of my teenage son (soccer player) on two occasions. He is friendly and knowledgeable, and had the best interest of my son in mind. He did everything he could to get him back on the field and playing the sport he loves, without sacrificing his health or safety. Highly recommend!!
