Dr. Christopher Paramore, MD

He is an ignorant all he cares about is himself he doesn't even believe you're in pain go see your primary that was his answer how does he think I got there I felt like I was sitting there and he was calling me basically a liar never ever would I recommend him to anyone which I'm sure he could give two s**** about I'm all done with Guthrie left to bed Vibe and my whole system I will go somewhere else from now on for everything that I go to

Dr Christopher G Paramore was a rude, arrogant, condescending jerk. Worst bedside manner I have ever experienced in a Doctor. After waiting three weeks to see him, my 80 year old mother who had a fractured vertebrae in her back was literally laughed at and mocked by the Doctor as she was crying in pain and fear. She walked out in the middle of the appointment. Had not even looked at her X-rays or medical records, did not examine her, kept saying the back probably healed on it own, yet she could not walk more than a couple feet with experiencing pain and shortness of breath. Have never experienced anything like it in my life. Now I see why he has a 1 rating. He deserves less. We are filing a formal complaint with Guthrie.

My fiancé had a spinal fusion and laminectomy done by this man. The surgery went well and Dr.Paramore did a great job with it. However, 3 weeks after the surgery, my fiancée developed 3 large lumps on his back near his incision sites. When I called and spoke directly to Dr.Paramore, I explained what was going on. I got the response “well swelling is normal”. I continued to explain that this was not swelling it was 3 lumps under the skin. I expressed my concern about possible beginning of abscesses. Dr.Paramore then said to me “Well, if he had an abscess he’d be pretty sick don’t ya think?” His tone was RUDE and demeaning! Made me feel like I was stupid for having concerns. To add, I am a nurse and not all abscesses make you sick. I then told Dr.Paramore that I just wanted to know his thoughts on what’s going on. He once again responded with the extremely rude toned response of “Not much”. At this point I was done with this man and his rotten attitude and hung up the phone without saying anymore before I told him how I felt about him.

When told I had lower back pain, he did not listen and decided I needed surgery on my neck. This did not help at all. Another doctor said he probably did this just for the money knowing he could do the appropriate surgery at a later date. Meanwhile, I have been I. Excruciating pain for months, some days barely able to move.

I had an injury to my neck about 6-7 years ago. I was in excruciating pain. I asked to see a partner of the same practice who had done surgery on me about 18 years prior to this injury, but I couldn't t be seen for three months and I could not go on in this shape so I decided to let Dr Paramore to do my surgery! I wish I had never seen this man! I have had nothing but trouble &pain to continue since the surgery! No cervical collar, I had plate & screws placed in the cervical area. After a year of tormenting pain, injections, physical therapy he claimed I had failed surgery! Mind you that he told me that the surgery would be a 90% fix! Seven yrs. later, I can't say I have improved as much as 20%! He told me he fixed the discs that had ruptured & also removed all of the bone spurs in that area. On a follow up of a CT scan, the report read that there were spurs seen in the cervical area! When I confronted him about the spurs still being there he replied in an unacceptable tone that he removed what he could & told me he had nothing else to offer me & that he would refer me to pain management! I have been going to pain mgmt for about 5 yrs now with the same pain, I now have a spinal cord stimulator! Would I see Dr. Paramore again or prefer anyone to him? A absolutely NOT! NEVER AGAIN!

Great physician!

"do no harm"? This dr. did more harm than good.

Dr. Paramore is outstanding! Hands down awesome.

Is not very forthcoming in explaining what is actually wrong with you. Vaguely answers questions with very little detail. Does not appear to be interested in keeping you comfortable and out of pain. Spends two-three minutes with you tops. His male assistant is very friendly, kind, answers all your questions, very professional, seems to care about you and what you're going through. The woman at the front desk/check in is very rude, has a smart mouth, and has no place in the healthcare field. The women at check out are very helpful and friendly. The parking lot and waiting area are dirty. Appearances and first impressions are everything. I was very disappointed with this Medical Office.

Avoid this doctor if you have neck pain. Dr. Paramore rudely left the exam room stating there was nothing wrong with my neck. I brought an MRI exam that it seemed like he didn't review. Later another local surgeon discovered a lesion in my cervical spine that was very noticeable on the MRI, the same MRI that Dr. Paramore supposedly reviewed. If he would have taken his time, the problem was very clear on the MRI. He didn't look close enough to notice the problem. On top of that, he acted very rushed and did not even let me ask a few simple questions. His dismissal of my problem sent me on a 5 month journey in pain, making me think I had fibromyalgia and numerous other conditions. The pain and anguished that I endured from his lack of care was devastating.
