I never had one. I only saw his nurse once for about 8 minutes. He would agree to give me innocuous medication which I was taking when I switched to this chain practice, but he would then not prescribe them, with nonsensical reasons why he would't. I was far from seen as an individual human being by everyone I dealt with, which were nurses and receptionists.

I have been a patient since 2003 when I moved to Birmingham. Very pleased with my choice.

I never saw him aside from a minute or two right before a procedure.I already about to get anesthesia, so that was not what I would consider a visit of any kind, let alone an office visit, which I had been told would occur but never did. I don’t consider that as good patient experience. I spent 10 minutes tops talking to his nurse for my first and only office visit. That was the entire person to person contact. The bulk of my time dealing with usually rude phone people. I would be told that they were going to prescribe me an... read more

Dr. Barranco is very personable and friendly . He does not rush through but takes time to discuss and listen. He personally calls the patient to discuss biopsy results. He also has staff call the next day after a procedure to check on patient.

My experience with Dr. Barranco over the years has been outstanding. He helped guide and diagnose an issue that ultimately led to complete healing after before and after I received a Liver transplant. I've met and worked with many doctors over the years and in my opinion, Dr. Barranco ranks at the top for professionalism, courtesy, and ability to relate and talk to me as a patient. I highly recommend Dr. Brent Barranco.

Do your research and know that there are other options. My prescription was written incorrectly and misspelled on my follow up sheet after a colonoscopy/endoscopy, this mistake was blamed on the fact that he just dictates to the device what he wants typed and it was the devices error that he failed to catch. I needed to talk to his office multiple times while experiencing different side effects (many severe) from medications he prescribed. Any time I tried to contact this office it seemed to be a large inconvenience to him a... read more

I have seen Dr. Barranco twice. He did my colonoscopy and recently did amber endoscopy. I have an appointment this week. I loved him and the staff at the endoscopy center at Brookwood. Dr. Barranco is very professional and has wonderful bedside manners. When I call his office at Brookwood, his staff is very helpful, professional, and sweet. I have also seen his nurse practitioner and she is also very professional and very kind. I would highly recommend the doctor and his staff to anyone!!!
