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.

Great Doctor
I have honestly been going to Dr. Parchment for well over 22 years and the experience from the start was a blessing. I continue my annual visits and she always makes me feel at home. Her bedside manner is impeccable and she has held my hand when I needed her as my physician going through every issue from emotional to weight gain during my pregnancies she laughed with me and cried with me when I had my children always wanting updated on my kids (now young adults) . I'm so very thankful for her personable attitude towards me as her patient. I will hope everyone gets to see that side of Dr. Winsome Parchment. Besides that, she knows her job and the health of her patient (me) always seems to be important to her.

WORSE DOCTOR AND PRACTICE
The WORSE OBGYN practice I have ever been too. If i van give a negative star I would not even hesitate. The doctor dropped my care in the middle of my pregnancy. There is absolutely no humanity in dropping your patients care mid pregnancy when there can be complications. Now I am without care. The staff and the doctors are very complicated and rude and they do not want to help you out. ABSOLUETLY RIDICULOUS.

Would not recommend this doctor. She was so cold and nonchalant to me on my first visit. When I ended up miscarrying, she didn’t even call to check on me. And when I called her, she dismissed my concerns. After my miscarriage, one of her staff members called me saying that they were calling to set up my delivery date and I told them, I miscarried. Come to find out, they had another patient’s information and called me. Although my first pregnancy ended in a loss, I would not suggest that anyone else user her as an OB. Find someone more caring.

let's finally tell it like it is about this doc
I lived in NJ for years and went to Dr. Parchment because of the reviews, and my experience was shockingly bad. I ignored my gut about this terrible office and its rude doctor b/c of how seemingly beloved she is. I know I'm not alone; a neighbor later told me that she, to a large degree, blames this doc for her baby's developmental problems, because of how Parchment dismissed her concerns while pregnant and didn't do her due diligence. The office is the least advanced facility I've seen, like something in a developing country. It smelled so astringent, it made me dizzy. And she was an hour late to my first appt, and late to all the others. During a biopsy of my cervix, the door to the room (basically an accordion closet door) was hanging off its hinge. When I told her excitedly that my partner & I were interested in starting a family, and asked for resources, she looked at my blankly, fished around in a drawer and gave me the pamphlet for a place that had been shutdown. Steer clear.

Horrible
I had the worst experience with her and her staff. I would not recommend her practice to anyone. Once you become a patient here you will be dealing with rude staff members and long wait times. Dr Parchment was so rude and cold to me. I will never come back or recommend this place to anyone. My experience here was disgraceful and disgusting how I was treated.

I have used Dr. Parchment for years and I have been pleased with her and her staff. She did an excellent job when I was pregnant, delivered my one pound four ounce premature baby very well and my daughter is now 22 and finishing up college. My daughter is a patient there as well. I strongly recommend her.

Worse obgyn and office ever!! The doctors are like a revolving door, they never stay, I was so in need of some real attention and every doctor there just told me to go to ER. I was so sick from morning sickness and I really wanted to have a baby but they were not attentive to me.

I first visited Dr. Parchment in early 2020 and did my procedure in November. From my very first visit, she made me feel comfortable. My procedure was very successful I had no issue and it was my first surgery. I had concerns about my procedure and I emailed and was surprised to see how quickly I got a personal response. in addition I would call the office and she would cal me back answering my concerns or queries. I have since recommended others who also are very comfortable and appreciative of her care and help.

I personally have a really hard time getting a hold of Dr. Parchment or receive calls back from their office and there is always a really long wait to be seen for your scheduled appointment. I'm fairly new to this practice but have already been to her office multiple times and I am not impressed so far!

Her bedside manner is unmatched. I love she takes you into her office, where she explains any issues you may and gives you time to ask her questions. Dr. Parchment wants to make sure you understand everything she is telling you. Her entire team is magnificent. They talk to you like you have been friends for years. I feel so relaxed when I am there. This entire staff is wonderful. I can’t express enough how much I love it there.
