Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I saw Dr Parikh for severe back pain. He was extremely helpful, explained how we will look for the core of the pain and will treat accordingly. He was thorough and very informative. I had si joint injection and will have follow up in a few weeks. Wonderful Dr.

Excellent, Full Explainatio Inspires zConfidence
Dr. Parikh spent more time explaining and answering questions than I expected, and it was so reassuring. I am much more confident that my back pain will resolve to a much better level that iriginally thought possible. Our conversation was frank and very informative. It was also very helpful to have a doctor actually give me advice.

He takes time to listen to you
Even though the practice is very busy. He takes the time to listen to you and does what he can to dig deeper and find the root cause of symptoms.

Hands down the best in his profession
Dr. Parikh has been treating me for some time now and has done everything possible to take away the pain from an accident at work. After extensive pain management treatment and physical therapy im getting some more range if motion and pain level has decreased significantly. I would recommend him to anyone that is injured at work. He would truly fight for you with Worker's Compensation board and will keep you out as long as he deems necessary not forcing you to go back too soon to work and possibly re-injuring yourself, he took his time and made sure that I can get the most treatment possible for my injuries and the best care possible. Im very thankful for all his efforts.

Excellent appointment!
I had no idea there were other options available for my recurring back spasms and pain. Doctor Parikh explained everything to me as to what options were available to me. He listen to my concerns, and I never felt rushed. I’m looking forward to my next plan of care.

It’s plain and simple. The best pain Doctor
My spine is a mess. My family has battled with joint issues for generations so I know what to expect. I have had many surgeries and to avoid or prolong having surgery I see Doctor Parikh. His whole team from Sam to his nursing staff are awesome. If you are reading this and trying to find a good doctor for your pain you can trust this man to be straight up and will try to help you any way he can. I’m the patient that rates him a ten out of ten. Everyone is different and needs something different to reduce their suffering. Go and just talk to him you will feel better soon.

Dr. Parikh
I have been a patient of Dr. Parikh for quite a few years now. After seeing several other doctors and not getting any results, I found Dr. Parikh and he knew immediately what was going on with my back. He is extremely professional, very informative and makes sure I understand everything he is explaining to me. He is always very friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I recommend him to anyone that asks me what doctor I see. He is truly the best!
