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.

My experience with Dr Parramore in July 2024 with gall bladder surgery was exemplary. Of course, I have no expert knowledge on which to base this opinion, but Dr Parramore expained why I needed the surgurgy and what it entailed, and after the surgery he expained what had been done. I had a serious prblem, and I have been feeling better ever since the surgery. He was professional, explained everything in a friendly way, and answered my questions. I am thankful that he was available to take care of me.

Very smooth pre-op, surgery, and recovery. Very clean and precise incision and placement of port. Very tolerable Lexington so of pain from surgery which only lasted a few days. Very impressed and pleased. Definitely would recommend Dr. Barrymore. Also very good bedside manner.
