Dr Parent was and is an outstanding and very caring doctor. it gets no better folks. Particularly so if you live in most parts of Florida. Here in FL they are young, could care less, in it for the money is my most sincere impression. This impression comes with considerable support. I was a patient of Parent many years. He is my good fortune!

Dr. Parent performed unnecessary tests on me. I was scared about what turned out to be a mild condition and he never once eased my concerns. He racked up unnecessary costs and actually overcharged me that led to this review because I am having to dispute him with my insurance company. He also tried to extract blood for one of the tests himself leading to BRUISING that I had for at least a week after. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.

Incompetent staff. Smug doctor. Unless you like having to beg them with phone call after phone call to get their job done, I would go somewhere else.
