Park presented a paper on the homeopathic treatment of smallpox at the Organon and Materia Medica Society of Philadelphia meeting in 1895. She was elected County Physician of Waukesha County, Wisconsin, in 1897, and re-elected to the post in 1898. She was the first woman to serve as County Physician in the state. From 1901 to 1908 she was assistant physician at the Waukesha Springs Sanitarium.
Park spoke to community groups on public health topics, and in support of women's suffrage. In an 1896 speech on "Modern Surgery" before the Woman's Club of Waukesha, she explained her belief that "Bacteria will be found to be the benefactor not the terror of the human race, turning noxious, toxic substances into inert forms which can be taken up by plants and in that form again used by animals."
By 1914, Park had moved to Seattle, Washington, where she was assistant medical inspector for the public schools, and served on the advisory board of the Theodora Home, a shelter for mothers and children in Ravenna Heights. She was an officer of the Seattle Council of Women Voters, and a member of the Medical Women's Club of Seattle, the King County Medical Society, and the Washington State Medical Association.
Park moved back to Wisconsin in 1922, to organize and direct the new Juvenile Department of the State Board of Control. She inspected orphanages and reformatories throughout the state, and lectured on her work, before she resigned in 1923, when her salary was cut in the state's budget. In 1928 she was back in the Pacific Northwest, as an officer of the Washington Society for Mental Hygiene.
