Dr. Parambil provides truly unmatched care for the region. Unfortunately, I'd had to be my own advocate for a couple years before I met Dr. Parambil- despite seeing many renound providers. Since becoming a patient of his, he has brought back my quality of life and genuinely listened to my concerns and my family's concerns. He's celebrated wins along with me in my recovery and continued to actively listen and even anticipate my needs. He has never talked down to me or my family and shared the decision making process and treatment explanations with us so we felt at ease trusting him with my life. There really aren't enough words of praise for this man and his medical practice.
