I didn't have the great experience others have posted here. He was fine during the first visit, and then the second visit he rushed through the appointment, talked over me, and offered me no help. He showed little to no concern for my medical issues. Not only that, but he wasted my time.

Once in a blue moon you get a doctor who is so attentive, inquisitive, gentle, and knowledgeable that you wish he was your gp, ent, gyno and ent. Such a wonderful doctor. I feel very fortunate having found Dr. Baristain. He's one of a kind.

According to my bill he ran a test that I was not aware of. If asked, I would not have approved the test. I do not recall getting the test and it cost me over $100.

My first visit, in my mind, I was sure I have Alzheimers or a brain tumor. Brief testing, he felt confident to assure me my difficulties are more than likely stemming from stress and anxiety. Sure enough testing proved I will just need a little help to get back my mental health. Both visits he listened to my concerns and answered my questions and I didn't feel like he was trying to rush me. He was kind, patient, empathetic both visits and I am so thankful my PCP referred him.
