Patient Reviews
Apr 14, 2018
Went to see Dr Parikh for a 2nd opinion work up on my Dad's cancer. Very good Dr listens and is patient, and uses his skills. Very honest. There was no surprises when it came to my Dad's whipple procedure that was not successful because my Dad's cancer had grown on main arteries and he called off the surgery. He said he could have went on and completed the whipple, but there was no sense in putting my Dad through that. I really appreciated his honesty and expertise.
