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.

In cohesive Office Staff
Front office staff booked me out one month after the NP said 2 weeks! The staff hasn’t scheduled a stat MRI that the NPI ordered yesterday! It hasn’t even gone to my insurance company yet! I’ve gotten a different answer as to why each time I call. I have been a patient of Dr Parchuri and his NP for over 4 years and never experienced this!

Excellent Care
Lisa Coakley and Dr. Parchuri are amazing! Thank you for always treating us like family and taking excellent care of my family! They are always so caring and take the time to listen. They promptly assessed and diagnosed my daughter’s back pain following a sports injury, getting her pain under control and putting my mind at ease to get her back & ready for competitions and the sport that she loves.. Everyone was very professional & caring. She received excellent care! We highly trust & recommend Dr. Parchuri & staff!

HORRIBLE
It was awful! He basically left me there, alone, when he knew I was having a hard time breathing instead of helping me or getting some assistance. And to top it off, he couldn't even come into my room to release me, he did it standing in the hall. My stimulator does not do the job it's suppose to be doing and he will not return any calls that I make to him to see what I can do. Congratulations to all you that he has helped, but for me he is the worse doctor I have EVER been associated with and I have had many.

Bill by Text
Dr Parchuri is a good spine doctor, but his billing leaves one with lots of questions. If you have never heard about billing by text message, watch out. He does that! In this age of text scams???He will not send a paper bill in the mail or submit it to your insurance. After a while he turns it over to a collection agency and you won’t know, what hit you! If you think, you can talk to the collection agency, think again. The person I tried to talk to was very rude. He interrupted me and then hung up!

Living Life Again
The two surgeries that I have had done by Dr. Parchuri have been life-changing for me. First, a Sacroiliac Fusion empowered me to get off of opiate pain medicine after 7 years of dependency. Second, my spinal cord stimulator gave me pain relief and continued relief today. Both surgeries have given me my life back. The care from the staff has been a class-act. Thank you!

Excellent care
Dr. Parchuri and his staff excel at listening to their patients. Most important is that they do not prescribe treatment when it is not necessary. They work with you to develope a treatment plan that fits your condition.

Excellent and caring Doctor and Staff
I have seen Dr. Parchuri in the past for shoulder surgery. He's very knowledgeable and cares about his patients. I am having back ablation on both sides of the lumbar region. I'm very confident this will help quite a bit. He listens to you and explains everything. The office staff is outstanding. Don't wait, see Dr. Parchuri soon for your back needs. You won't be disappointed.

For the past months since April, I haven't been able to walk, stand, climb stairs without excruciating pain in my lower back. Today at 1 pm, Dr. Parchuri and the whole staff took great care of me and administered a spinal injection. With the ease of the anesthesia, I felt no pain for which I was dreading. It is now 12 am and for the first time since April, I can stand up straight and walking up stairs was a piece of cake. Thank you Dr.Parchuri and staff for being so kind and gentle.

Dr. Parchuri and his staff are incredible!
Dr. Parchuri and his staff have went above and beyond on my several visits to his office. The ladies at the front desk always have a smile and the level of assistance only increases from there. His assistants we knowledgeable and very helpful with all the questions and problems I had with my insurance company. And lastly Dr Parchuri is very personable and explained what I needed to know. I would highly recommend them.

I have never had a bad experience with Dr Parchuri or Lisa. The wait is never that long, and they take time with their patients. They're very caring and I would highly recommend Spine & Orthopedic Specialists of Tulsa.

What A Difference!
Sent to Dr P by my primary. Never wanted to see a surgeon due to fear of being told i needed back surgery. Cannot tell you how relieved I was to meet and listen to his explanation about my problem and options available to treat it. None of them involved cutting on me! Keeping my fingers crossed that the injections work!
