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.

Compound leg fracture, no problem
Dr. Parks, got me up and moving again after a traumatic leg injury. Able to put weight on it immediately following surgery. 10 out of 10, would recommend.

Awesome Gentleman and Doctor!
Dr. Parks is one of the most caring and knowledgeable doctors, and has a great bedside manner. He fixed my fractured hip in January and the surgery was done with precision, by part of 'The Dream Team'. I would recommend Dr. Parks to anyone and everyone.

Dr. Parks treated me in the hospital when I fell and fractured my pelvis while I was a patient. He has cared for me for nearly a year. He is kind, caring and easy to talk to. His bedside manner is outstanding. I am very grateful to have him treating me. I HIGHLY recommend him!

Awesome All Around
I had the unfortunate experience of meeting Dr Parks the day of my ORIF surgery for a TPF of my left leg. I thank my lucky stars that I was referred to him. I could not ask for a better surgeon. His skills are unsurpassed. I am able to walk without issue because of him and his team. I’ve never felt unimportant, or rushed during any of my post op visits. My concerns are always addressed with clear and understandable explanation. An added plus, my scar is beautiful. How often can that be said?

Dr Parks is professional
Dr Parks is professional, polite, respectful, supportive, courteous, compassionate and experienced. Dr Parks was a wonderful man who helped my mal-union after a year of working with me and the physical therapist. He had to perform two procedures on me and the second was an added benefit to me and restored the full use of my left arm. I have chosen to continue to work with Dr Parks on my trocanteric bursitis of the left hip. I can only recommend Dr Parks as a retired Director of Nursing from New York City, for orthopedic care.

I shattered both of my heels in May 2019 while at Topsail Beach. Dr. Parks did surgery to repair the bad breaks. He did a terrific job. The surgery and recovery went very well. His team was there for me and my physical therapist at all times. They were all extremely attentive and immediately available to provide any answers, prescriptions or instructions during recover. Dr. Parks is a top notch surgeon.
