"He was very concerned with my health and
although he didn't have all that much
experience with GPS he knew of some
success stories and was willing to
help me all the way.
He the best PCP I ever had because
he considered me as a person and never
blamed my fat for every illness I would
encounter. Of course he was concerned
for me carrying all this weight and
would suggest things for me to try but
he never judged me like some Docs. do.
"
" I first met him during the orientation meeting
that we, here in Ct. must do. He was very informative and seemed like he cared so much for us.
I have been in the office a few times and everyone there treats you like you are normal and not everweight.
They respect you and that is so important for us who have been looked down upon for so long.
His office manager nurse sets up appt. for everything you need to have done from the fist visit to the consulting visits to ht e post op visit and she is wonderful.
Dr. Barba is there with you for the surgery, when you wake up in recovery, and comes to visit you each day in the hospital.
He will see you 2 weeks or less in the office and then 3 months and six months and then one year then each year there after.
I had extra visits because I had an abscess in my incision line and he kepts a close eye on me.
Dr. Barba and his nurse manager sit with you before you get your surgery date and discuss the surgery.
They tell you and your support person all about the good and the bad that could happen. There are no secrets in that office.
I would rate dr. Barba a ***10***
Dr. Barba is wonderful "
