My daughter had dark circles under her eyes and had multiple GI issues. Within 3 months of seeing Dr. Parke, she narrowed it down and treated the problem, not the symptoms. All of the other doctors we had seen just gave her “masking agents” and she still never felt 100%. My daughter is now the bright, happy, full of energy 12 year old that she should be!!
After 3 years of suffering poor health, I went to see Dr. Emily Parke. At the time, I felt as if I was being set upon by many illnesses which my internist simply couldn’t figure out.
I complained to Dr. Parke about the inability of obtaining proper restful sleep, psoriasis, repeated bladder infections, indigestion issues and what appeared to be thyroid issues. However, my blood work kept coming back negative for thyroid disease with my internist because he ran only 2 of the 4 blood tests necessary to determine thyroid disease.
The first thing Dr. Parke did was to run extensive blood work. The results showed that all of my symptoms came under Hashimoto’s (thyroid disease).
Systematically she started to heal my body through diet, nutrients, and additional suggestions on other modalities that improved and supported my good health.
After 6 months, I have made great inroads in reversing all of the symptoms caused by the Hashimoto’s condition. I attribute my success to correct and complete diagnosis made by Dr. Parke. In addition, Dr. Parke addressed the whole body and not just the symptoms. Lastly, she gave me a life structure to maintain my newly-acquired good health.
Dr. Parke is an excellent physician with a wealth of knowledge about pain and other chronic health conditions. She works with patients to help them take proactive steps to improve their health as naturally as possible, but has a background in traditional western medicine and clearly understands traditional diagnosis and treatment models. I came to Dr. Parke for acupuncture to my low back. It helped! I found Dr. Parke to be an excellent listener as she helped me sort through the various traditional and alternative options for treating my back pain. She is such a bright, competent and knowledgeable physician. She provides compassionate, patient centered care and really does go many extra miles to help her patients get better! The office is professionally run and things operate smoothly. You won’t be disappointed if you choose to work with Dr. Parke.
Dr. Emily Parke is the most talented physician I have ever known during my more than 80 years on this planet. She devotes her skills to customizing unique medical plans for each person, i.e. she treats individuals not averages. She begins by extensive testing and analysis to determine the root cause of your Medical Problem/s and then creates a treatment plan based on Natural Medicine when possible and the smallest does of Synthetic substances when necessary to give the desired result.
Dr. Parke is highly intelligent, has knowledge of all Medical specialties as well as an excellent understanding of Physiology and the Mind-Body Connection. She is friendly, compassionate and will spend as much time with each patient as necessary to develop a thorough understanding of their Physical and Psychological needs. She is the best listener I have encountered in the Medical Profession.
If you have a Medical problem that other professionals have been unable to treat or just want a highly skilled Doctor to keep you healthy, I recommend making an appointment with Dr. Parke. You will be glad you did.
Dr. Parke is fantastic! She is a thorough clinician with an eye for treating patients, not disease. I’ve seen her for acupuncture for neck and shoulder pain that massage, chiropractors, active release, yoga and muscle relaxants couldn’t break.
She has all the acumen of a “mainstream” osteopathic physician, in addition to her acupuncture and functional medicine training. So. Dr. Parke has a lot of tools in her belt, and YEARS of training that allow her to view health issues from multiple vantage points. Plus, her bedside manner is wonderful!
Dr. Parke is amazing! I tried the IR sauna thinking it would be similar to other saunas I have used in the past. I have been thrilled with the difference. The sauna is a great detoxification tool and good for stress relief. After several uses, I have also noticed a difference in my skin texture. I would highly recommend giving the sauna a try, you will be happy with the results.
The meditation course at Dr. Parke’s office led by Briana Beveridge provided me with the tools I needed to embark on a personal meditation routine. As a beginner, I really knew nothing and she made things very simple. Her calming and positive demeanor is perfect for demystifying meditation. Thank you Briana!
Dr. Parke is attentive, knowledgeable, and a perfect blend of a traditional medical background coupled with her functional medical expertise. 17 years of a chronically ill child in multiple systems, thanks to Dr. Parke, we are seeing measurable improvements in our child’s health and overall well being, sustained without the addition of another prescription. Thank you Dr. Parke!
