Dr Parker will see any patients with any ocular complaints. He does, however, have a special interest in plastic surgery relating to the eye and orbit. Before any surgery, he will take the time necessary to ensure patients understand treatment options and any non-surgical options available. His surgical technique is of the highest quality. After surgery, he will manage the patient’s recovery and direct any further treatment necessary. He will always keep the referrer, and any other relevant specialists or practitioners, informed of the patients progress and will engage other subspecialists care if required.
