Provider was great. I had not been back to this dept in over 3 years due to the lack of support from another provider. This one was amazing and made me feel comfortable

Dr Barnard is a wonderful physician. Kind, engaged and very interested in how you are feeling. He answered all my questions and addressed any concerns. He is supportive and respectful of the staff and takes his time to explain to them and myself what he is doing and why. Very refreshing.
