I wish I had been referred to Dr. Barnes years ago. It would have saved me from three additional surgeries and too many aspiration of a seroma from the last surgery performed. After getting no where and much to the advice of my husband I looked for another surgeon for a second opinion. That's when I found Dr. Barnes and much to my dismay Dr. Barnes told me that I had an Epigastric hernia and surgery was needed. This would now be my 4th hernia operation in 2-1/2 years. However, this surgery went without a snap, recovery was e... read more

I walked in with several hernias and loads of scar tissue from previous surgeries (failed attempts to fix the hernias). 2 weeks later, and I feel like a new man. I can squat for the first time in 5 years without pain. Having had several surgeries in the past (hernias, colon, knee, and mouth), I can say this was by far the best surgery I have ever had. Dr. Barnes is truly an expert in his profession.

I made an appointment with Dr. Barnes to get a second opinion based on a recommendation by my general physician. I am so thankful I was pointed in his direction. Had I simply followed the recommendation by the first general surgeon & not seen Dr. Barnes, my medical condition would be further complicated. I was only seen by him once, but he passed my case along to the right doctor to treat my condition, no general surgery necessary. I am forever grateful for him & his high ethical standards.

Highly recommend Dr Barnes. He has performed abdomen hernia and leg Lipoma surgery on me. He is extremely knowledgeable and professional. I have the smallest insignificant scars. I was pleasantly surprised at the quick recovery time. My husband recently had a lipoma removed from his lower back by Dr Barnes and also had a quick, minimal discomfort, quick recovery. I believe it’s due to Dr Barnes exceptional skill. Dr Barnes is a 5+ star surgeon.

I got a diagnosis on Thursday evening that I needed my gallbladder out and was referred to Dr Barnes by my gastroenterologist. I called Friday morning to schedule an appointment and they squeezed me in that morning. Dr Barnes saw me and I was scheduled for surgery that next Monday. Had to make 2 on-call calls to him after hours and he was very understanding and professional. Great surgeon that cares and wants you to feel better as soon as possible!!

Dr Barnes a very knowledgeable and capable surgeon. He was very informative about my surgery. After the surgery he visited every day to check on my progress. Office follow ups were great.

I have honestly never met a more caring and professional doctor. Dr. Barnes and his staff were easy to work with and very accommodating. They helped me schedule multiple tests and appointments quickly and efficiently. Even with Dr. Barnes' demanding schedule, I was able to see him when needed for pre-op and post-op visits. I am very happy with my experience and I highly recommend Dr. Barnes!
