One thought on “Dr. Parris Retires”

  1. Dr. Parris is a knowledgeable, kind, caring and compassionate physician. He has taken care of me for over 20 years and I just can’t see any other doctor measuring up to the very high standards he has set. While I will miss you greatly and have no idea what I’m going to do without you, I hope you enjoy your retirement, you definitely deserve it. Thank you very much for all you have done for me and my family.
