Rating & Reviews
Susan Parks was so kind and attentive. The punctuality of the whole team was amazing. We couldn't have been happier with our experience.
Susan park is the BEST! She was very professional and was very clear with everything and answered all my questions. Would definitely recommend
Dr. Susan Park was amazing! She was so kind and patient. She listened very well, and was extremely attentive. Even after we left she called to say that she noticed something in my daughter's chart that we hadn't discussed, and she spent a long time on the phone with me. She is truly excellent and I would refer anyone to her. Thank you, Dr. Park!
The staff were all very respectful and knowledgeable. They made our appointment run smoothly and were all very patient with our child.

Susan was very informative, caring and genuine. She was patient and answered all my questions.
Thank you!
Susan was very patient, caring, and compassionate. She helped alleviate my anxiety with her thorough explanations. At the end of our appointment, my son asked for a sticker and she came back with a stuffed animal. He was overjoyed! It was very thoughtful. While I hope to never have to go to take my children to the hospital, at least I know that if/when we do we're in good hands at Phoenix Children's.
Everyone was so kind and patient! It was a really great experience.
The Staff showed care and safety for my childs health. Went beyond care by explaining to my child (simple and eazy instructions for my childs understanding ) of importance of being healthy and safety for her future. My child was able to understand what was being explained to her without her asking me what everything ment. Best hospital staff.
Susan Park was absolutely amazing so nice and sweet.
We had a great experience at the heart center. Doctor Susan Park was great with my son and very patient as he cried during the visit. She also did great at explaining my son's condition and answering my questions.
Susan was very personable and professional. She made us feel very comfortable and was not rushed.
Susan Park is an amazing provider! I am so blessed to have her care for my son! She is compassionate, ethical, intelligent, and has GREAT bed side manners! If every provider was like Susan Park, healthcare industry would be a much better place!
