Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Exceptional in all ways: educational service, listening skills, responsiveness, medical knowledge. Communicates a genuine interest in health issues presented to him.

This was my husbands and my first appt with Dr. Barnes. We were very unhappy with our previous physician and chose Dr Barnes for future care. We were very very impressed with him and the entire staff. So happy we have switched and we look forward to Dr. Barnes being our physician!

Dr. Barnes is the absolute best! I have referred him to others many times. He took care of my husband for more than 20 years and when my doctor retired I also became his patient. He is kind, caring and always answers my questions. I never feel rushed in his office.
