Joseph J. Parelman's Online Review Report Card

I've been seen by Dr. Parelman and his team for over 30 years and I am only in my 40's. Dr. Parelman has long been at the top of his field and always takes great care during our appointments. I don't just routinely give out 5 stars. Dr. Parelman deserves his stars!

My review is secondhand, but it is from the viewpoint of a very upset daughter. Dr. Parelman preformed cataract surgery on my mother 4 years ago. She has suffered terribly since thing. We have now taken her to another doctor to learn that due to a pre-existing condition THAT HE DIAGNOSED a different process should have been followed before preforming the surgery. Not only that, the exact steps, recovery time, follow-up appointment schedule, etc. were not communicated to my mother. I no longer live in rural Missouri, and I know that there are limits when it comes to healthcare. But, do yourself a favor and avoid this man. He has no bedside manner - my mom called one of her children remarkably angry or upset after every appointment - and he doesn't care about his patients. It is my opinion that he is using his practice in Nevada as a way to further line his pockets and treats his patients and is practice like a factory. I am contemplating filing an official complaint with the Miss

I am contemplating filing an official complaint with the Missouri Board of Professional Registration, but not sure I want to put my mother through that. But, I can't stress enough. Do not see this doctor.

I was very concerned about having pterygium surgery. I read about it on the Internet and it sounded like there was a lot of pain involved. I discussed this with Dr. Parelman. I am a Doubting Thomas!! He was right, in fact I had no pain at anytime. He even called me that night to see how thing were going. His office made some follow-up calls, also. He did a great job and seemed to understand my nervousness.

Wonderful
