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.

Does NOT provide care as if caring for his own
Todd Allen Parker ‘examined’ my mother and ignored signs/symptoms of a more serious illness. He did not order labs, X-rays or ct scans to confirm what he thought the problem was. She was discharged only to return less than 48 hours later and require emergency surgery.

Dr. Parker was a seriously arrogant, condescending, unprofessional Doctor who probably shouldn't be practicing. I had my 2 YO granddaughter for the week. She is from central NY State. She started getting sick the day after she arrived. We contacted her Pediatrician at home. She advised to watch her fever, give OTC meds. ER if worsens. Long story short, she got worse. To the ER we go. Dr. came in and I told him the same story. Asked if I was vaccinated. "No" proceeded to tell me she most likely has COVID. Her mom wanted her tested back home Monday so we declined. Went on to shame me by insinuating that I gave it to her. I explained the flu &RSV was going around back home He told me it wasn't. Shamed me again for probably giving her COVID. She was diagnosed there w a pneumonia (via COVID). Given antibiotics and cleared up almost immediately. When she got home her doctor said the tests confirmed Influenza. Oh and I'm negative for COVID, confirmed by two tests. So infuriating.

It was busy in the ER but he took excellent care of my mom who came in very sick. She left the hospital a few days later back to normal. He took the time to explain everything that was going on and really put us at ease.

At the very least you would believe that after 5 hours in the ER that the doctor that came to see you would have at least read your file. At least a good doctor would have! Instead after jabbing me with a needle in my gum, he processed to lecture me on why I shouldn't smoke. The whole time I am in tears from repeated needle pokes as the infection had spread to my neck. The he said that he could get them to give me an IV antibiotics. To bad I had that 3 HOURS ago!! Worst ER visit EVER!!!

I came in with chest pain. Dr Parker did not see any signs of a heart attack initially, but said there was something about my case that worried him and that he wanted to watch me for a few hours. Three hours later, my tests still were normal but he said my pain was concerning him so he called a cardiologist. The cardiologist found that I had a blockage in my heart that didn't show up in the tests and that Dr Parker had likely saved my life.

Dr. Parker was one of the most inconsiderate, obnoxious, demeaning doctors I have ever encountered. We brought our two week baby into the ER for difficulty breathing and he was condescending and downright rude and asked if we were first time parents and also stated tat it is a good thing we have a nose AND a mouth to breath through (because she was just stuffy). Oh, and that his children were much worse than this as newborns...this after waiting three hours.
