Dr Barker is finest kind. He is patient with his patients and takes his time with each one of us as if we were the only one he had to see for the day. His staff is excellent and obviously observe and follow his philosophy for patient care. I can't think of a bad thing to say about his practice. I know...he doesn't have enough golf magazines in the waiting room. We need to do something about that.

Even though this website (vitals.com) shows that Dr. Barker is accepting new patients, unfortunately, he is NOT and, according to his staff, he has been "full" for a long time. Had heard so many good things about him, was disappointed to discover this. : ( The only way to post this was to rate him, so gave him 5 stars.

I have been a patient of Dr Barker's since I moved to Lubbock when I was 14 and before he had his own practice. I love his PA's and him. I now have a family of my own and still use Dr Barker. I recommend him to anyone looking for an honesty, trustworthy, dependable, and cheerful doctor!!!
