Dr. Alison Parden, MD

I was referred to UCA by another physician. They came highly recommended. I see Dr. Parden and she has taken great care of me the past couple of years. She takes her time to listen and explain any issues I’m having. She’s understanding, caring and very knowledgeable. Dr. Parden, the nurses and staff have been awesome!

I love everyone at the UCA. Everyone is always so nice. And Dr Pickering is the sweetest person. She's always so careful and she makes you feel so at ease so that you're not nervous or anything. I am just so very glad that I chose UCA for my issues.

Her professional, yet down to earth, demeanor. And expertise. She gives all the options and then allows the patient to choose the one with which they are most comfortable.

Competent, engaged, and aware of my medical history. Appreciated the flexibility to see me since I was 20 minutes late due to hwy 31 northbound was closed at Shades Crest Road in Vestavia.

The nurse and Dr Parden are always friendly, caring and informative of all information I need. They explained all procedures. They make me feel more like they are family. I’m always very comfortable with my medical treatments

Very intelligent and answered all of my questions with a wonderful bedside manner

I went for a confirmation of a diagnosis from a different provider. She clearly explained everything to me. She made me feel much more comfortable and informed about my condition. The office was clean. The staff was friendly and personable. I would recommend this office and provider.

Dr. Pickering (previously Parden) was very helpful and thorough answering questions I had at my visit today. I will definitely be going back for any issues pertaining to urology and other female conditions that come with aging.

I was seen by other doctors who told me my symptoms were weird and they could not help me. Dr PickeringParden) was very knowledgeable and knew exactly what my diagnosis was. She started treatment during my very first appointment!

Very professional. All questions were answered.

Although I was apprehensive about my surgery the entire staff helped me to understand the procedure and removed my concerns. All went very well and I am pleased with the outcome.

Dr Parden and her staff were very friendly and nice, the office was clean with plenty of room to sit in waiting room. All my questions and concerns were answered

Her knowledge was far superior to any urology offices I have visited in the past 2 years. I feel totally confident in having her as my urologynecologist! Thank you, Laura Fox

Great atmosphere and employees!!! Thank you for a wonderful experience at you office.

Dr Parden is extremely knowledgeable and spent a great deal of time with me explaining all my options ! She was highly recommended to me and I feel like I have made the best choice with Dr Parden!

She is so good about listening to you and knowing what to do in your particular situation. She genuinely likes her patients and cares for them. I thank God everyday that she has come into my life. I am like a different person because she knew how to treat me. I will recommend her to anyone that asks me.

I've been treated with respect and compassion every step of the way through my diagnosis, surgery, and post-operative appointment. My concerns were addressed and validated.

We got there a hour early and they let us in so my wife didn't have to stand, they all were extremely nice, and my wife said she was very very affordable, she treated my wife as if she was a friend. Thank you and your staff.

I drive quite a distance to see Dr. Pickering. She has helped more than any physician for my problems and I have seen LOTS of doctors over the years. If she moved her practice to Washington state I would follow her. I am retired from the medical field and I know a competent kind doctor when I see one. She is by far the best. I also like the fact that there are no men in this clinic. IMMMO men don’t have a good grasp on female gyne-urology issues. The office is run efficiently and personnel are kind.

Dr. Parden is always very thorough and spends time with you. She listens!!!
