John is my favorite SOS Doctor, he doesn't beat around the bush, he's straight forward to the point. John is very informative and precise with his diagnosis. He's the Best Hip Specialist I've ever met...

My appointment was on time and very little waiting. Dr Parker was very helpful and went out of his way to explain my condition and what I could do till I could get to Physical therapy. During my exam he examined my knee because it was sore from my other issue. He recommended a cortisone shot for the pain and he was correct. Very professional operation and staff were friendly.

I (just) recently had a full hip replacement at SOS Taft Rd location. Dr Parker and entire staff were the best. The post surgery team far exceeded my expectations. I was treated professionally and with incredible courtesy. Many thanks to all who made my surgery and overnight stay a great experience. Ro Karoleski

It’d difficult to say just how completely satisfied I am with my experience with Dr. Parker. From initial consult until final release his mannerisms and expertise exceeded those of any physician I’ve dealt with in the past. He has brought my physical condition to pre-injury level and I would recommend him highly to anyone needing orthopedic advice and attention. He’s a credit to the profession.

I would recommend him he is so nice and caring. I smashed my ankle 6 yrs ago and he told me he didn't know if he could fix it. He did! He is a true lifesaver! Thank you Karen
