Dr. James William Barber, MD

I have not done a follow up visit yet I go back on the 9th.He had me go to Dorminy Hospital and have a test run on my legs.My feet and hand's go to sleep all the time.So I can't rate everything yet.I also have degenerative disk disease which causes my mobility to walk at times I have to sit down.I'm not really sure what's causing it yet.I wanted his # to try and find out about the test so I feel like I can't rate everything yet.

After having 3 fractures while on vacation, I called twice to make a appt. And was told I needed to wait for the nurse to call me back. After waiting two days for a response, I called elsewhere and got an appt that day and have since had surgery. It has been 15 days and I still have not received a call back.

Dr. Barber is an excellent doctor. He cares about his patients. I have had 2 very serious accidents and he was very prompt in administering to my needs. I would very much recommend Dr. Barber to anyone needing a caring physician who is knowledgeable in his field.

This orthopedist is really a nice guy. He is very professional and knowledgeable, and definitely knows his specialty. I have had both office visits and surgery for different problems, and was very pleased with all of my care. A word of advice; be on time for your appointment, and be patient. You may have to wait a little while, but not an unreasonable amount of time. This doctor is busy; as I said, be on time, but be patient because you will get all of the time you need to spend with him when it is your turn. Another bit of advice; if you are able to fill out new patient paperwork ahead of your actual appointment time, you will be better off. Don't keep the staff waiting when they may be ready for you!!!

DO NOT go see this doctor! He diagnosed a relative of mine and determined they needed hip replacement surgery ASAP yet prescribed an anti inflamatory medicine to ease their pain. This patient is a 59 year old and I'm sure does not have a problem with any narcotics. So if you are in pain this is the wrong place to go. I hope that mr.barber sleeps well tonite because the patient he accepted the insurance payment from is awake at this moment ready to see a REAL DOCTOR who will help him rather than harm him!
