Patient Reviews
May 12, 2024
Dr Barker is a very knowledgeable cardiologist. I have been a patient of his for about 20years. I'm talking years before he opened his own practice. He's great at listening to my medical needs and has gone to great lengths when possible to correct any and all of my health problems. He will put his patients first even if he has to call you himself after hours to make sure you receive important health information or to find out if your doing well or need anything before a weekend or holiday when your having critical health issues. He is always very kind and professional. His referrals to other healthcare professionals that you may need are always exceptional choices.
