— Healthgrades patient review of Dr. Stephen Park"Dr. Parks has an Low Carb Diet Program...cost wise is way above the normal cost of similar plans...She gives NO feedback, NO suggestions, NO plans. You can go to other facilities for $80.00 per visit and receive a coach that you can text or email at anytime."
— Healthgrades patient review of Dr. Stephen Park"Impressive how knowledgeable she is on the subject, and also it's very obvious that she applies it to her own personal lifestyle. She doesn't just talk the talk, so that's very motivating for the patient."
