Had an umbilical hernia repaired by Prof Parker at Hobson Healthcare. From the initial consult to the post-op check, I felt in safe hands. He explained the procedure clearly and I appreciated the honest timeline for recovery. Happily back to fishing in Altona after a smooth healing process.
I needed a skin lesion removed and a biopsy done. Prof Parker was patient, thorough, and very reassuring. The wound care follow-up was excellent and the team at Cnr Queen & Sargood Street made the whole experience stress-free. Highly recommended if you’re in the Hobsons Bay area.
Relieved to have finally had my appendectomy handled by a surgeon who talked me through every step. Prof Parker’s explanations were clear and the recovery guidance was practical. The Altona clinic felt well run and the staff were friendly. Five stars.
Fantastic care for a stubborn skin lesion. Prof Parker removed it with precision and my scar is already fading nicely. The whole visit to Hobson Healthcare was smooth, with punctual appointments and great aftercare instructions.
I was anxious about hernia repair, but Prof Parker put me at ease. He answered all my questions and the recovery advice helped me get back to normal life quickly. The Altona clinic has a really approachable vibe, easy parking too.
Thank you to Prof Parker for the biopsy and the clear, compassionate care. I appreciated the detailed explanations and the friendly nursing staff in the Hobson Healthcare suite. My results came back quickly and I felt supported every step of the way.
I had a minor wound care need and was impressed by the efficiency and warmth of the team. Prof Parker checked in after my procedure and explained how to care for the incision at home. Great service for residents around Altona.
