Dr. Natalie Barron, MD

I went to Dr. Barron due to it being over two months since my last period. I was hesitant to return to her, as she has been dismissive in the past (after which I received a fibromyalgia diagnosis from another doctor). Her nurse asked me how many days since my last period and took my vitals. Dr. Barron walked in laughing off my situation, sat down, and taught me how the birth control I have been on for over three years works, without bothering to ask if I had questions. She did zero evaluation, asked no follow up questions, and took no labs. She said "you'll have a period eventually, all good? Alright happy holidays". I felt incredibly dismissed and belittled. I am 30 years old. I have a child. I have been on birth control my entire adult life. She treated my legitimate concern like an overreaction and didn't even bother to check if something might be wrong knowing fully well that I have a complicated health history.

Natalie Barron, M.D. left me feeling humiliated. I am a career professional and father with minimal medical history. I called the doctors because I re-injured my back. The first available appointment was with Barron, several days later. In between that time I had gone to the ER and received an X-ray, meds and made an MRI appointment. This was the exact same steps I had taken in the past due to this injury and the end result is always an epidural in the spine that lasts 2-3 years and it's been 4 years since my last epidural. As soon as Barron walked in the room she treated me like a pill seeker, not a patient. Her entire line of questioning wasn't even a thinly vailed attempt at hiding her contempt for me as it was clear she didn't see me as a patient. She refuted the ER's X-ray saying it essentially was normal and questioned my "story" even after she was able to corroborate my medical history on her records. When I asked to speak with her about a second unrelated medical concern she… huffed and rolled her eyes. It was clear she couldn't get me out of the office fast enough. She didn't even examine me. She simply referred me to a specialist and said, "hopefully the pain will get better" after refusing to give me even a non-narcotic pain management plan until this injury can again be resolved. I needed that doctors appointment today. I needed legitimate medical help to a legitimate medical injury with a legitimate medical plan and all I left with was a feeling of humiliation and degradation.

Very caring and helpful

I like this Dr. But the up front Staff NOT SO MUCH.VERY HARD to get an apt.with.When you are sick you have to wait for days to see anyone in this office. I spoke with them about it and nothing was done.

I had been her patient for several years, and felt ok with the treatment by her and her staff, but wasn't satisfied at times. Nothing could have prepared me for her very cold uncompassionate care after I insisted on getting a specialists opinion for my problem. I ended up being kicked to the curb for asking for a specialist, turned out I had a tumor. In retrospect, it was the best thing I could have done in being blown off by these people because it forced me to get better medical care. She obviously showed up on test day and got what she needed to wear her credentials, but there is no recommendation from me to visit this place. No one should be afraid to ask for help when there is a clear need for more investigation into a medical dilemma. I am now with a wonderful caring practitioner and staff, and shutter to think how I would be able to still be with this group.

Dr. Barron took the time to explain procedures and diagnosis with me. She promised follow-up after labs and she personally called me on the results. The nurse I saw could have been a little more friendly. She was cold and talked to me like I was a child and I'm older than she is. Overall Dr. Barron was worth the ok service from everyone else.

I recently moved here from NW Ohio for a job and needed to find a primary care physician. Just out of personal preference I choose to have female doctors. Dr. Barron's bedside manner is extremely caring and professional. Many times (working in healthcare) I see doctors rush in and rush out only to provide the patient with instructions for the meds. Dr. Barron takes the time to fully listen and voice her expert opinion only after understanding the entire issue. I would recommend her to anyone seeking a truly caring and professional physician. The office staff is very friendly as well, with extreme ease in getting appointments.
