I received a difficult diagnosis this year. Dr. Barnes had to give me the news. But along with the bad news he gave me some good news that this was doable. I followed his instructions and located a great surgeon, had a pancreatectomy-splenectomy and so far this story has a happy ending. This visit was a wellness checkup, fairly routine. I wish everyone could find a capable, caring doctor like Dr. Barnes.

07/15/2021

05/07/2021

there was another doctor learning with me for quite a while, before my regular provider James Barns. Went fine

05/02/2021

The only way you can help more people get the same amazing care I receive from Dr. Barnes, is to have more doctors like Dr. Barnes. I have had a serious fear of doctors all my life, but I actually looked forward to my checkup with Dr. Barnes, as he isn't just a fantastic doctor, but a real human being. My family is extremely fortunate that we literally stumbled upon him being our family physician, as our previous doctor several years ago was out on maternity leave. If it were not for Dr. Barnes, I'm quite certain my grandma would not be alive today, as he diagnosed her with CHF, while her other doctor just told me my grandmother was 'old' and her deteriorating health was something i had to accept. I seriously cannot say enough about how amazing Dr. Barnes is, and that is including his staff (especially his main nurse Trina). Sometimes. as in all doctor offices, you may have to wait to be seen, but Dr. Barnes NEVER rushes you and your concerns, and even takes the time to give you a good honest laugh. if the medical profession and more sincere and honest practitioners like Dr. Barnes, I'm 110% certain the world would be a healthier, happier place.

04/28/2021

I always feels comfortable and enjoy the visit. I leave feeling better than when I came in.
