Dr. Ellen Parker was one of the best doctors I have seen to date! I needed to establish a new primary care doctor, and I am so glad that I chose to see her. She was compassionate, empathetic, intelligent, and informed, and she spent a good amount of time with me establishing the foundation for great future care! I look forward to continuing to see her in the years to come.

She listens, takes my concerns seriously, doesn't rush, and explains things well. I'm comfortable around her even though I often get anxious at doctor's offices. Recently had my second checkup from her, and it went just as well as the first. I will keep coming back. I have recommended Dr. Parker to multiple friends who are looking for PCPs in the Chicago area.
Verified patient
As my first visit, Dr. Parker spent a large sum of time talking to me about my life and getting to know me. When I brought up some of my health issues, instead of brushing them off, she took her time to look into them and really understand why they might be happening. Highly recommend!

Would definitely see Dr. Parker again. Saw her for the first time today; she was great. Took her time to get to know me and talk about everything I wanted to cover. Compassionate, understanding, had solid recommendations. Also--when she needed to move the time of my appointment, she called me herself to do so (never had a doctor do that before), and she let me know several days in advance. I was able to reschedule for a different time the same day. I suspected then that I'd like Dr. Parker; already recommended her to a friend who's looking for a PCP.

Professionalism + charm wrapped in effectiveness was so impressive —Dr. Parker addressed my husband’s diabetic/high-blood pressure condition with the urgency my husband needed! Leading me to schedule an annual physical w/ her for myself! And that was even before personally calling a few days later to discuss w/ my husband how his prescribed meds were working for him! She’s our game-changer for our best health!
Verified patient
My middle-school-aged daughter felt very at ease with Dr. Parker (She said Dr. Parker would make a great teacher!), and I found her thorough and thoughtful in her questions and examination. She spent plenty of time with us and clearly wanted to get to know my daughter well.
Verified patient
Dr. Parker has the best analogies to help understand medical conditions in the simplest terms possible without getting too technical. Personable and full of energy, she is a physician I plan to keep.
Verified patient
Dr Parker was great.
Dr Parker is friendly and welcoming which is important at a doctor office since many people are nervous or worried about their health. Everytime I see her I feel she listens to me and my concerns, asks good questions and brings good advice to my situations.
Dr. Parker on my first visit quickly grasped my complex medical history, examined, ordered appropriate tests in office, diagnosed the current issue and prescribed medication. Shortly thereafter followed up with phone call to my home. Good manner throughout. Most pleased to recommend her.
Dr. Parker is a good listener. She then discusses with you regarding the options you have and asks what you think and also what she feels might work best.
Dr Parker was very attentive and really took her time with me on my first visit. She was quick to get me my lab reports and very responsive to a message I sent her. I'm happy to initiate primary care with her and feel confident moving forward!
One of his best doctors
Dr. Parker is not my teenager's normal doctor, but we both felt very comfortable with her and I felt like she explained things well directly to my daughter, while still addressing my questions. I left thinking we would like to see her again.
