Samuel K. Park, MD

The lady who answered the phone was courteous and scheduled me an appointment the same day. I called back when i was able to head over early (1pm appointment time; called at 11:11am to see if they can squeeze me in before lunch & they did!) after solving my issues we sched another appointment to follow up.
The doctor was funny, professional and very thorough, i am very happy. I live 16 miles from his office but he will be my new doctor. Im male, 32, with ppo insurance fyi

We’ve been going to Dr. Park for eight years. My entire family, and my kids were as young as three years old. He’s always pleasant always smart always available… It’s convenience we can’t find another doctor and we get exceptional professionalism.
We’ve been going for too long not to be absolutely positive this is a five-​star physician and a five star place.

I started seeing Dr. Samuel Park because both of my knees were really bad. I had seen so many Doctors that really didn’t help. Dr. Park was able to put painless injections in my knees while doing an ultra sound to see exactly where to put it. It helped so much and it didn’t hurt like most of them do. After a while, we had no choice but to replace BOTH knees. He did them at the same time. He is an amazing surgeon. He did such a great job that I was able to go home after 6 days in hospital rather than go to a rehab for a few weeks. I am so much better. I wish I would have done this years ago. I am so happy I found Dr. Park and his excellent staff. I never have to wait, Dr. Park spends a lot of time with each of his patients, he listens and is very compassionate. I recommend him to anyone that has the need for a highly skilled and trained Doctor and surgeon.

Accommodating hours. He is prompt. He is friendly yet professional and listens to you and your symptoms. He is knowledgeable. If you need a referral he is accommodating. He is not frivolous with his prescription pad. He is not an over subscriber. His rates are very reasonable. Highly recommended. He takes drop offs. He also provides exams for your pilot’s license and can provide sports physicals. My entire family appreciates him and his staff.

I have been going to see Dr. park for many years. Hardly any wait time. He is very professional always listens to his patients without rushing them. Calls in prescription never any issue. Very kind staff as well as clean office easy to park and easy to leave. I just love this place.

Dr park is a great Dr. Yes he is still human but he is definitly five star as good as it gets in Family practice physicians that can really do just about any thing you walk in off the street and need like an infedtion, broken bones, physical exam etc. Any intelligent physician (and he is very intelligent) has to be a little unahppy with the mess our healthcare system is in and the truly rediculous amount Drs are expected to accept these days. Dr park still works fairly with cash paying patients struggling to find good healthcare. He really is a kind person and does listen to you very carefully. He really can only be as good as his patient is receptive to what he has to say and what he reccommends. Divirticulitis is common in people over 40 and even more common when you are over 60. The first line of treatment is to adjust your diet. I imagine he discussed diet with you if you went in complaining of abdominal pain and this does general solve the problem most of the time. He is very honest about what is reasonable and cost effective treatment. I went in with the flu once and saw that he is not as receptive to me when I am sick and whiney. He perscribed the appropriate treatment and told me to go get some rest. I happy to say I got better quickly and was reassured i wasn’t sicker. My whole family goes to him and we work in healthcare too. He has so far diagnosed everyone exactly right. I reccomend him to people all the time. It is a nice office you can walk in and see a Sharp Dr right away.

Dr. Park is cynical about the medical profession and the way it doesn’t pay enough to be a doctor. He also believes that his congeniality is very important. My experience with him seemed okay until I went with a problem that could have been diagnosed if he taken the time to think about my symptoms, which were pains in the pelvic area and no infection shown with test for bladder infection. I went to him three times over two months and he never caught on that the symptoms were those of diverticulitis. Instead, he told me he thought my excruciating pains were in the «normal range.» I consider this misdiagnosis of a major degree! Three times with same symptoms, three times with clear urinalysis – no bladder infection. When I showed up twice in one day, before and after work, because the pain was so horrible, he laughed. I can only assume it was a laugh of embarrassment. I question whether he knows what a differential diagnosis is, where a doctor looks at the symptoms and systematically eliminates each possible cause. There is one thing I recommend him for, which is minor surgery. He is good with a needle.

I was so disappointed by Dr. Park, particularly after all of the 5 star reviews. He was dismissive, unhelpful, and condescending. I sought help for a particular problem, for which he gave me an «exam» that lasted less than 30 seconds. He did not suggest a treatment plan so I requested what I wanted. He obliged, but was not proactive in the least. I can say with confidence that Dr. Park does not care if I recover or not.

Went to see Dr. Park for the first time this week. Wow, got in at 8:30am! I decided to visit based on the reviews and I must say I concur with the reviews. Dr. Park is on top of it! He seem to really care about his work and patients. I was not rush out of the office, asked as many questions as I wanted, and was just happy that I felt really comfortable with the doc. My number one primary care doctor for sure.

I was really happy to find this place. I just moved to the area and don’t have insurance so every visit costs me money that I could use for food or rent so it is really important to find someone that is going to help me. Dr. Park is super nice and really genuinely engaging and interested in my health.
