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.

Dr. Parish is a very friendly and knowledgeable when it comes to addressing any problems you have now, or may have in the future.

Top notch professional
I met Dr Parish during an ER visit for a collapsed lung. I immediately felt that I was in great hands. I even told him that I was so grateful he came to the ER to see me because he made me feel very reassured as we worked through a spontaneous pneumothorax. He took his time to discuss treatment with me and was very thorough. He listened to my concerns and expressed empathy, which can be rare these days. He was never in a rush and always took the time we needed to answer my many questions before and after VATS Surgery. His team was patient, through, and understanding as well. I highly recommend this surgeon and his team!

Dr. Parish very professional. I personally talked to Dr Parish about my dad's condition and what he thought about it. When we walked in that office his staff, his PA and Dr Parish himself made my dad feel at home. This is the first specialist that I had ever dealt with in Ascension who does not rush when he speaks and on to the next. He takes the time to engage in conversation with his patients. The conversation that he has with his patient gives him the direction on how to engage with the patient. He explained everything thoroughly so that you can easily understand what the findings were on your tests and what needs to be done and how they're going to proceed. I would like to say thank you to Dr Parrish and his staff. You are the prime example of how doctor patient services should be done.
