Dr. Parks is fantastic. I wish she was my primary care physician so I could see her more often

Providence Patient
Dr Parks is great! Very kind, considerate, and knowledgeable. She is also very approachable and efficient. This past visit, my wait time to see the doctor was much longer, which inconvenienced the rest of my plans that day, but I understand it's a busy clinic. Personally, I would rather wait in the waiting room than in an exam room if the doctor knows she's running late

All the doctors I have seen in the St. John's group have been easy to talk to and listen very well. I am happy with those doctors I have visited.
