Repeatedly, terrible. I am surprised she has a job. Do not recommend. Rushes the appt. Does not listen, or at least does not listen and care. Does not make diagnosis and treat. Just refers to another doctor/department. Never helpful.

I really like Dr. Park. This was my first visit with her and I feel like I am in good capable hands. She was very warm, kind and approachable. I’m very happy to have found her!

Disgusting. Shame in the name of doctor/healthcare professional. Fire her at once. Forget rating. Please explain how does she keep her job?

Terrible. My first visit i was grilled about why i changed primary care and i responded
I decided at my age i wanted a female internist she was strident demeaning rude
Recently a friend went to her for first time and expressed dane experience. I had a second appointment scheduled with Dr Park but after hearing i was not only one who had bad experience. I determined she has that type of personality and I canceled appt
I have had great experience at Sansum with this ONE

I do not recommend this doctor. She does not care about trying to treat complex issues. She just wants to get her visit over and done with. I have chronic insomnia and back pain, which are difficult to treat. She told me there was nothing she could do for that and wouldn't even prescribe any medication for temporary relief because in her opinion there is no medicine that works, and therefore I jsut have to suffer. Useless. Did not become a doctor to help patients, that's for sure.

I do not recommend Dr. Park. Although she was a nice doctor, she was not helpful at all and did not take symptoms seriously.

Has no patience. Rolls her eyes as you are explaining her your issues. First refuses you the procedure that was a part of preventative care for years, then coldly changes her mind (with no explanation or sorry) after seeing old reports. In short, the worst that a doctor can be. Bad person, bad doctor. --- Scientist/Research Professional

Cold, terse, unresponsive. I messaged her via MyChart 2+ months ago. She was on vacation. Her assistant responded; it read like a form letter. No way of telling if Dr. Park had received my message. A month later, I messaged again The assistant responded again. This time, she was officious; discounting my needs. DR. PARK DOES NOT RESPOND TO MYCHART. I saw her once: Robotic demeanor. Sansum is short staffed. Clearly Dr. Park thinks of patients as numbers. Next! #Beware

Dr. Park was the worst. Like another review mentioned, she talks down to you and does not listen to anything you have to say. I walked out of her office feeling worse then when I went in. I would never recommend seeing her.

Dr. Park does not explain why she's denying your request. I felt talked down to, and disrespected. I can't say enough how small I felt because of her arrogance. Insensitive!!!

Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Park?
I initially scheduled an appointment with Dr. Park simply on the basis on how quickly I could get an appointment. Having met her, however, I'm convinced that it was the best thing. Never in my adult life have I had a doctor take such time to learn about my overall health and concerns. Although I assume her schedule was full, I felt like the only patient she had to worry about. In addition, her nurse was equally as friendly, attentive and highly efficient - truly a professional staff.

The worst. She won't even call you back personally and just says no to requests through her nurse. Do not go to her
