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.

Not the provider to choose
I have gone to Parchment Family Practice for about 3 years now. Now I do not know WHY I have put up with this level of incompetence and unprofessionalism for so long. The office is unorganized and not proactive at all. They do not care about patients or the patient experience at all. There will be no surveys or opportunities for your input. Communication on what the process is for anything is not communicated. I have been misdiagnosed more than once, much to my pain and detriment on multiple occasions. For simple items that should have been a knowledge area for the doctor. He is NOT a functioning or informed DO. Adjustments done were not successful, even after repeated tries, and I didn't know until I went to a REAL chiropractor who, after months of being in pain, successfully identified and treated my condition in a matter of minutes. Please do not waste your time or your precious health on this provider or this office. It has been nothing but painful - literally and figuratively.

I have seen Dr. Born and his staff for over 10 years and they were the best. Even after moving 600 miles away, I considered driving back for my check ups. I wish I could find a staff like that in the U.P.

Dr. Born has treated my entire family for many years. He is excellent with children. Speaks to them as individuals, rather than about them like they aren't even in the room. He is very experienced within all areas of medicine. Treats the entire body rather than just a symptom. He literally saved my life after I was overdosed with morphine at the Bronson ER for a kidney stone. I had my mom drive me straight to him after the ER nurse took me to the car in a wheelchair as I was puking. ?? Dr. Born.
