Review
“My visit was unfortunately delayed due to a computer glitch that would not allow Doctor Barnes access to my x-ray. Dr. Barnes personally came to the waiting room and explained the situation and asked all of us waiting if we would like to returning the afternoon, after he performed a hip replacement, or just reschedule. We returned that afternoon and he made time to honor the appointment. We were very impressed that he would go out of his way to do that and still was as pleasant as could be.”
