Dr. Barry and staff did an excellent job. I’m very grateful they took my case on.

I was very confident in what he had to say and how he handled my case.

What would you tell family and friends about your experience with this provider?
I've only seen Dr Barry twice, once a year or two ago and now the [DATE]. My only complaint is that it took a couple of weeks to get in to see him, I was in severe pain. I had an appointment for the first part of [MONTH] when they called and cancelled, he was going on vacation so I couldn't see him until [DATE]. Him and his nurses were very nice. He made a plan for me to get therapy. I'm satisfied with what he told me and will be going back there in a few weeks.
