Dr. Parnell is an amazing doctor. I had a baby in Pensacola, Florida on 3/29/2024. I was told by my OB that I had “barely a second degree tear” I had issues postpartum and I was not listened to by her. Thankfully, I found Dr Parnell and he listened to my concerns. Turns out, I at least had a third degree tear and my muscle was still separated, I also had a rectocele. I had surgery this past May with him and I’m doing so much better now. He prayed with me before surgery and I had a great experience with him and his team. I will recommend him to anyone I know that needs pelvic floor surgery. He is God sent. If you are having female issues, don’t hesitate to call his office and let them help you! My experience was 10/10.
