      Philosophy of care | When treating patients, I imagine how I would want to be treated and incorporate that into every interaction. I treat many diseases of the head and neck, ranging from problems breathing through the nose to cancers of the sinuses and skull base, so there is no single treatment for everyone. I strive to explain the disease process, sometimes using diagrams or images to help with the anatomy and location of the problem as well as my treatment recommendations. Communication is key when dealing with complex disease, and I strive to keep an open line of conversation. | Why I entered medicine | Medicine provides the opportunity to truly help and directly impact lives. I chose a career in medicine to not only help my patients, but also to help advance the field. I was drawn to otolaryngology, a specialty focused on the ears, nose and throat, because it offered an opportunity to work with patients of all ages and treat many diseases, from sore throats to complex cancers. | Community involvement | As a rhinologist living in the Lehigh Valley, I strive to bring awareness to disease of the sinuses. | Personal interests | In my free time I enjoy traveling and being outdoors. I love hiking, backpacking and exploring. When at home, I enjoy spending time with my family and experimenting with new recipes and cuisines. Dr. Parsel is rated as an Experienced provider by MediFind in the treatment of Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak. His top areas of expertise are Chronic Rhinosinusitis with Nasal Polyps (CRSwNP), Sinusitis, Throat Cancer, Endoscopy, and Laryngectomy.

Together, we navigate the journey toward healing with trust, transparency and the highest standard of excellence. | Why I entered medicine | I was drawn to medicine by a deep fascination with neuroanatomy – the elegance of the nervous system’s structure and function captivated me from the beginning. But beyond the science, it was the resilience and courage of my patients that truly inspired me.

      Philosophy of care | As a neurosurgeon, I believe in delivering precise, evidence-based care grounded in thoughtful decision-making and deep respect for each patient’s unique experience. My goal is to guide you through complex diagnoses with clarity, compassion and honesty – always prioritizing what is safest, most effective and most aligned with your values. Sometimes that may even mean no surgery at all. Ultimately, I see neurosurgery not just as a technical discipline, but as a human one – where careful listening, deliberate action and lifelong learning are essential to achieving the best outcomes. | Why I entered medicine | I was drawn to biology by a fascination with how the body works – particularly the complexity of the brain. But what ultimately drew me to medicine was the opportunity to apply that science in a way that directly improves people’s lives. I find deep purpose in using the rigor of neuroscience and the precision of surgery to help patients through some of their most challenging moments. Medicine allows me to engage both intellectually and personally – bringing together knowledge, skill and compassion to make a real difference each day. | Community involvement | I’m proud to be joining the Lehigh Valley community and committed to providing the highest level of neurosurgical care right here at home. I will be working to become embedded in the fabric of the medical community of this region such that primary care and specialists are all working together to better educate and take care of those who live here. | Personal interests | I enjoy staying active (running, swimming, biking) and spending time with my family. My wife is a physician as well and we have two young children. Together, my family brings me joy and keeps me grounded daily.

      What is the definition of Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak?

      A CSF leak is an escape of the fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord. This fluid is called the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF).

      When should I see a Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctor near Allentown, PA?

      There are various reasons why you may want to see a specialist, such as: 

      • Your primary care provider recommends it. 
      • Your condition requires expert knowledge and specialized care. 
      • Your symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment. 
      • You need specialized testing or procedures. 
      • You want a second opinion.  

      What should I consider when choosing a Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctor near Allentown, PA?

      It’s important to see a provider with expertise in your specific condition. Each provider profile in MediFind’s doctor database includes information on which conditions they treat, years of experience, research contributions, languages spoken, insurance plans accepted, and more.  

      How does MediFind rank Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctors near Allentown, PA?

      MediFind’s rankings are based on a variety of data sources, such as the number of articles a doctor has published in medical journals, participation in clinical trials and industry conferences, as well as the number of patients that provider sees for a given condition. Note that MediFind’s provider database is not based on user reviews, and providers do not pay to be included in the database. 

      What types of insurance are accepted by Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctors near Allentown, PA?

      Most profiles in MediFind’s doctor database include a list of insurance plans accepted by that provider. However, it’s a good idea to contact the provider’s office to make sure they still accept your insurance, then doublecheck by contacting your insurance plan to confirm they’re in network. 

      How can I book an appointment online with a Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctor near Allentown, PA?

      MediFind offers direct scheduling for certain providers using the “Request Appointment” button on that provider’s profile. If the schedule option is not available for a provider, tap the red “Show Phone Number” button on their profile to get their contact information. If you prefer to find providers who offer online scheduling, select “Schedules online” under the “Availability” category of the filter feature on the left side of the Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctor search results page. 

      Why is it important to get a second opinion from a different Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctor?

      Second opinions are an opportunity to confirm a diagnosis and its root cause, learn about alternative treatment options, or simply gain peace of mind. Many people, especially those with serious diagnoses, get second opinions so they can understand all their options and make informed decisions, so don’t hesitate to get one if you have any doubts or need more information or clarification regarding your care. Note that some insurance plans require second opinions, while others don’t cover second opinions, so be sure to confirm with your insurance provider first.   

      How can I prepare for my appointment with a Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctor near Allentown, PA?

      Prepare for your appointment by gathering the following items: 

      • Copies of medical records (dating back at least one year) 
      • Your medical history, including illnesses, medical conditions, surgeries, and other doctors you see 
      • Family history of disease 
      • List of current prescription drugs, over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal remedies or supplements including names and doses 
      • Allergies to medications, food, latex, insects, etc.  
      • List of questions and concerns 
      • Your insurance card 

      You might also contact the provider’s office to see if they offer transportation or childcare services or if you’re allowed to bring a loved one for support or to take notes during your visit. 

      What questions should I ask my Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctor?

      Here are some sample questions: 

      • Can you explain in simple terms what this condition is and how it’s treated? 
      • What symptoms or side effects should I watch for? 
      • What tests will be involved, and when can I expect results? 
      • Are there other specialists I need to see? 
      • What’s the best way to reach you if I have follow-up questions? 

      How can I learn about the latest clinical trials and research advances my Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctor may know about?

      MediFind’s Clinical Trials tool asks you a series of questions to help you narrow down your search by health condition, age, gender, location, how far you’re willing to travel, and more. Each question you answer filters down the number of trials until you find the ones that are most relevant to you. 

      MediFind’s Latest Advances tool features summaries of recent articles published in medical journals. We use cutting-edge technology to scour medical publication databases for the latest research advancements on any given condition, then we simplify this information in a way that’s useful and easy to understand. 

      Can I filter my search to show male or female Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctors near Allentown, PA?

      Look for the filter feature on the left side of the Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctor search results page. Select “Female” or “Male” under the “Gender” category to search for female or male providers exclusively. If the “Any” option is selected, it will pull results for both male and female providers. 

      Can I filter my search to find a Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctor that offers video calls?

      Look for the filter feature on the left-side of the Cerebrospinal Fluid Leak doctor search results page. Select “Offers telehealth visits” under the Availability category to search for providers who offer virtual appointments (video calls).
