Dr. Thomas Eric Parent, MD

Dr parent is very caring and listens to his patients. I’ve been seeing him for a couple years now for knee issues and surgery. He goes above and beyond to help his patients feel better. I would recommend him highly

I suffered a work-related injury to my left arm, in which my elbow was dislocated, my forearm fractured, and my wrist crushed and compacted. My hand was wedged beneath my wrist. With every breath I took, I prayed to God to, please, not give me a hook. I mentally prepared myself for a hook. Instead, God gave me Dr.Thomas E. Parent. Dr.Parent must have excelled at jigsaw puzzles as a child, because he figured out where all the pieces belonged. He even gave me a beautiful scar that followed the natural design of my arm, so that it is camouflaged. There are not enough stars in the Universe to give to this honest Doctor, in my book. May God continue to bless Dr.Parent, forever and forever. He is to be respected and revered. Dr.Parent's staff is of high caliber, as is expected. His office managers, assistants, and technicians are all very kind, pleasant, and professional. We are lucky to have them in our area...very lucky, indeed. Thank you, Dr.Parent!

great bedside manner. personable, friendly and upfront. knowledgeable

I've gone to this man for a long time for aches and pains and analysis. Ended up with frozen shoulder and was assigned to the PA. Super nice woman, great bed side manner. I posted on my fb profile, friends view only, that a nurse called me to schedule my cap release surgery and was rude likely because it was the end of her day and was discussing surgical/insurance authorization and forgot to give me my surgery date and I used an lol (laughing) saying guess I'll get the date later. A week later Dr. Parent instructed his PA to call me and say that he was told I wanted a second opinion. I never stated that. Anywhere. Because of my FB post he didn't want to be my surgeon. I was laughing at his nurse not complaining about him. He must not realize in 2017 people post on social media and since I didn't even complain about him it makes no sense, AFTER THEY KNEW MY MOM WAS FLYING DOWN TO FLORIDA TO HELP ME WITH MY TODDLER AFTER SHOULDER SURGERY AND HER FLIGHT WAS ALREADY SCHEDULED, TO CANCEL MY SURGERY BECAUSE HE DOESN'T LIKE A SOCIAL MEDIA POST. I never complained about him. EVER! They have terrible customer service when they knowingly fire a patient, who wasn't even upset and didn't complaint, simply posted it was funny the nurse forgot to give me my surgery date - and they know that patient has a schedule to stick to for surgery. WOW DO NOT GO TO THIS OFFICE. GO TO DR. GUERRA.

I had a nice experience with all the staff in both the office and the surgical center.Dr.Parent was very informative on both the surgery and the recovery.I feel lucky to have had him as my surgeon.

The best Doctor in Collier County....

Had a surgery by Dr Parent. Only 1 follow up visit. One year later my shoulder is completely locked up and worse pain in my life. Called for appointment and it would be three weeks. Having to go to an emergency room for any relief from his botched surgery. No sympathy or help from his staff. Son't use these people.

He was very efficient the syrgery was a success

I was a patient of Dr. Parent in Wilmington , NC and he treated both hands for carpal tunnel. This was approximately 1995 and I have had excellent results. I was a dental assistant at the time and was in pain daily. I continued in the profession for another 21 years pain free. Excellent care and glad to see he is practicing and sharing his gifts and talents with other fortunate patients.

Dr. Parent is the best orthopedic doctor in town. In the world. His humbleness, warm, heartfelt mannerism is the reason I will refer him to anyone in need. His surgery center is amazing. What a wonderful combination. Especially those girls in the surgery center office. He accommodates you at any given time. 5 Stars!!!

Dr Parent is so booked, because he is so good.

I felt my care was excellent!! My diagnosis was not what I expected and requires surgery, I completely freaked out and Dr Parenr was amazing! He took time with me , help calm me it was a amazing reaction. Drs usually pass people off he did not it was great!

The best orthopedic surgeon in the southern USA.

Awesome doctor! I have seen him several times and have had excellent care....I highly recommend him.

Excellent physician...Must admit did prefer going to the surgery center for post op visits. More efficient staff and less wait time. Very pleased with the results of my hand surgery/

Excellent Doctor!

Careless doctor, very cold!

Cannot understand the terrible reviews that I have read. Someone has a vendetta against this good man. Even after reading some of the slander that I encountered, I had Dr parent operate on my left elbow. I had immediate results!!!! I could snap my fingers for the first time in two years!!! Shaking is gradually disappearing. I have complete faith in this man. Although he seems very busy, he took all the time I needed to answer my concerns. Thank you Dr.Parent!!!! If you are apprehensive, try this guy

I felt really blessed that Dr. parent was recommended to me after my injury. He tried an injection first and that did not help so I had arthroscopic surgery on my knee. The recovery time was very short and I was able to enjoy the rest of my time in Florida w/o constant pain. I asked for information for my doctor at home which was given to me without any problem. My experience with Dr. Parent and his staff has been excellent!

I have not been here before and read these reviews, but I too had a bad experience. I had rotator cuff surgery, I had nerve damage that was not Dr. Parents fault, but not knowing at the time what was going on other than I was in excruciating pain, I looked to Dr. Parent for help. Dr. Parent was cold, uncaring. I believe he thought I was going to be the patient that whined and cried over the slightest pain. There was no referring me to maybe a neurologist. His attitude was "not my problem, I did nothing wrong so you will have to deal with it". In 2009 I had to have my other shoulder done and of course found another surgeon. All this time I thought maybe it was me, maybe Dr. Parent didn't like me ect. but reading these reviews lets me know that is definitely was him, not me. Find someone else to operate on you, there are plenty of other surgeons.
