Patients Seen: All Ages

Bed­side man­ner, and con­nect­ing with my patients, are very impor­tant parts of my prac­tice. My goals dur­ing vis­its are to deter­mine the cause of symp­toms through test­ing (when indi­cat­ed and desired), edu­cate patients and fam­i­lies on their con­di­tions, set up a thor­ough treat­ment plan, and ulti­mate­ly improve my patients’ qual­i­ty of life.

"My appointment with Dr. Barnes has been the best experience I've had with any physician at the clinic since 1995. She took her time listening to me, well documented our visit and thoroughly explained her treatment plan with her thoughts on a possible diagnosis. I would highly recommend her to anyone and consider my experience "most refreshing" most especially compared to the last few appointments"

"I've already recommended her a lot. And two friends recommended her to me. I've had vertigo for a week but no one recognized this except Dr Barnes. My neurologist didn't figure it out nor did the ER doctor nor my family doctor. I'll forever be grateful Dr Barnes took the time with me to help. I'm so much better now."
