“Through the zocdoc there wasn't any spot to mention what was wrong with me. So my primary called and asked me, and he gave me an earlier date.
I spoke about my injury and what happened it sounded like she just wanted to get through with the appt.”

The doctor was very punctual. She answered all of my questions in a manner that I was able to understand and addressed all of my concerns. I did not feel rushed or ignored.
January 21, 2025Janice M.Verified patient
I felt like a number, not a patient. When the medical office called, they informed me Dr. Barnes only had five minutes for my appointment. This led to a rushed experience where I couldn’t discuss all my concerns. Unfortunately, the doctor didn’t seem very caring and was clearly pressured by the time constraint, reducing the visit to just a few hurried minutes. It was disappointing not to receive the time and attention needed for a thorough, thoughtful consultation.

Dr. Barnes is an excellent primary care physician and I recommend her highly. She truly cares about her patients and does not rush through appointments but is still on time. 5 stars for sure!

Very unprofessional and unpleasant doctor. Pushed to get a vaccine and threatened me when I refused. Never again I want to see her.
March 23, 2022Azaliya K.Verified patient
Dr. Barnes and her nurse (who’s name I forgot) were so kind to me. I was so nervous about this appointment and I have high anxiety in doctor’s offices. They eased my worries while also being straight forward with any concerns I had. Their patients were just incredible and I am so glad I finally got my physical!

May 6, 2021Silvia S.Verified patient
It was a good experience, I arrived 5 minutes late and owned up to it. The front desk was not pleased and made me uncomfortable about my delay which added to my anxiety. The rest of the staff was nice and understanding. Doctor was very sweet and let me talk through my anxiousness to be there. Listened and provided good direction for next steps.

Dr. Barnes was very professional and allowed me to talk about my concerns. She didn’t rush me and helped with what I needed. Also, she completed a full assessment and questionnaire as I was a new patient to her unlike other doctors.
