"Dr. Barker is a very good surgeon. He is, however, very popular and so very busy. His office is always full. His staff is always busy. But, even still, they take the time to answer your questions no matter how simple they may seem. Dr. Barker has managed to get a great staff together. They seem to work well together. I always enjoy visiting them. The office itself is very nice, well decorated and comfortable. There are some really cool paintings. Take a close look at them when you are there. Look at the signature. As for Dr. Barker himself, I have had a few complications. Dr. Barker wound up doing 3 surgeries for me in total. I would not have gone anywhere else. I have complete trust in him. He's got a good sense of humor, which to me is important to help you through a stressful situation. Like any other surgery, you should do your leg work before visiting your surgeon and have your questions ready. Dr. Barker also has support group meetings for those interested. "
