Dr. David Waddell Barnes, MD

Dr. Barnes will always remain in my gratitude. When infected with a rare and difficult to diagnose Nocardia bacteria (species Brasiliensis), based upon my symptoms, he correctly identified the bacteria, and began antibiotic treatment before final lab work came back from University of Texas. He was professional, calm and cool...........and made me feel comfortable as my primary doctor. I am not a doctor, but was in the medical diagnostic imaging field for most of my career, and have worked all over the world with some of the best doctors. Dr. Barnes was and is at the top of my list. Smart and great patient manner.
