There are no words to describe how happy I am to have my life back. What was a depressing and restrictive situation not to mention embarrassing has now turned into me having my life back. My procedure was 8 days ago and I am so blessed to have found Dr. Parnell. God certainly blessed me in finding and choosing him to do my surgery. Robin B.

I am so thankful for Dr. Parnell. After dealing with sepsis and spine surgery I developed incontinence so bad. He told me about the axonics implant and that helped about 60 percent. Dr. Parnell then suggested the Bulkamid procedure . Last Thursday February 12,2026 I had that procedure done. I am a different person today. I have NO leakage at all. Thank you, Dr. Parnell I have a better outlook on life now. Also, the staff is great! Dr. Parnell you are the best!
