Reminder we have Beyfortus ( RSV antibody in office) for babies less than 8 months. I highly recommend it for your infants as we are seeing RSV in our community. If anyone has any questions about it let us know.

Reminder for any scheduling your best bet before we open is calling the family side when they open at 7. Easier way to go ahead and get on the schedule. RSV is circulating so please be mindful of your babies.

If anyone has any questions please reach out!

We have one peds nurse hired and she's currently going through training. We are still taking applications for a second person as well. My volume is very much so another person is a necessity.

This is an MA/LPN position. If anyone is interested the link is below. You are also welcome to email me your resume as well Dustin.parker774@gmail.com

If you have any questions I am happy to try to help. Pay etc is dependent on experience and other factors so that is something once you apply they can discuss with you.

In the interim we are doing great with the staff we have and I will continue to bring patients back ( and give vaccines 😊 if necessary).

Thank you,
Dr. Parker

I hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween 👻!

I wanted to make everyone aware we are seeing higher levels of RSV and flu is coming next. If you have a baby less than 8 months I highly recommend our RSV injection ( beyfortus) and if over 6 months I highly suggest flu vaccination ( my family got theirs last weekend).

Another pro tip is you can call the family side during the week starting at 7 before the pediatric side opens at 8 for scheduling for me. Just tell them you need an appt and they can access the pediatric side no issues for scheduling purposes vs waiting until we open at 8.

If anyone has any questions please reach out!

Happy Halloween from our zoo! I didn't get to dress up at work this year as I was off but we always have family costumes!

Feel free if you are a patient show us your costumes! I have talked about what kids were being all week.

Reminder for all my patients. After Halloween I will no longer be active staff at Baptist here in Union City. If you are my patient/delivering there you will see the on call person starting November 1st. Once you are discharged I'll see you in office like normal ( same as babies delivered elsewhere I don't see in the hospital).

I am happy to do circumcisions in office for those that want me to do those. If anyone has any questions about any of that please reach out to me!

We have found some replacement nurses and are in the process of getting them started and still have interviews ongoing. I'll introduce the nurses hired later once they get going with me! We will be excited to have help.

We will also change EMRs this month to a program called Athena. It's way way nicer than what we have currently. There will be a patient portal and so forth.

We are in the process of finding replacement nurses. Please bear with me as my wait times have increased. Please understand we are doing the best we can we are just running short staffed. I have been bringing back my patients some myself to help. Once we get folks hired we will be back to normal.

Thank you

We had a great time away. Will return full force tomorrow. Appreciate everyone understanding as my messages were low volume over the break ( which was much appreciated 😊).

All messages received should have been returned unless they were today and I'll go through those by this evening.
