Wade Barker

"First Impression: Is he married? He is extremely good looking. After getting past that I felt that Dr. B was very knowledgeable and straight to the point. He answered all my questions and was very helpful eventhough is office was packed. I felt that I was not rushed and for that moment I had his undivided attention. My cousin was a patient of his so he came to me highly recommended. His staff was also great! Dr. Barker is a great doctor with a world of knowledge when it comes to WLS. He and his staff have been extremely patient with me this whole time and I thank them for that b/c I know at times I was a pain. I was just so anxious to get my approval. They make sure that you get the approval. The staff is fully trained on ALL insurance requirements and I have never heard of a patient being denied from his office. They dot all the I's and cross all the T's. Dr. Barker is a GREAT surgeon, but his bedside manners are 0 to none. He did not meet with me before the surgery nor did I see him after the surgery. To be honest I didn't even see Dr. Barker in the OR before I had my \"cocktail\". I saw all of his staff, but no Dr. Barker. When I was in the OR and asked where he was, they told me he went to grab a bite to eat and then I was sleep. When I woke up no one from his staff was there to even tell me how the procedure went. I wish I would have choosen a Dr. that cared a little more about me than my money. The only thing good I have to say is that he is a good surgeon, but if you are looking for someone to inform you on how things went, I think you should look beyond Dr. Barker. "
