1 /5 Janelle Garcia: Before I begin, I am aware that each individual has their own opinion and personal experience with this doctor. My experience with this doctor was not the greatest and this is just my personal opinion. I usually prefer female doctors just because I feel a lot more comfortable with them. However, when I first interacted with the doctor, she seemed nice but at the same time very dismissive about a few concerns I had. That was the first sign I noticed. I Scheduled multiple appointment to give her another chance. Again, I still felt that disconnection with her because of her short responses and the lack of engagement. What frustrated me was when I tried to open up to my doctor about my acute depression and lack of sleep due to all the stress I was having during my college years (back 2017). She gave me short answer by referring me to get a sleep test and kept on insisting on taking antidepressants instead of other natural alternative (ex: exercise or sleep early etc). My previous doctors that I had were culturally aware of their patients and knew exactly how to engage with them and provided a welcoming environment (the doctors moved out of town). I no longer see Dr. Parks due to other experiences. I still strongly believe that this doctors lacks on figuring out how to engage with their patients and lack of enthusiasm. Once again, this is my personal opinion but you all might have different experiences with Dr. Parks.
