“Dr. Barr is the most amazing, nurturing doctor I have ever met. When he pledged he would always do his best and care for his patients, that is definitely what he does. He is always very straightforward about what you need and the good and bad about the surgery. What else can I say? He is the very best in his field.”

“My experience with Dr. Barr was very good. He was knowledgeable and pleasant. He was also a good listener, affirming and caring about my concerns and frustrations. My surgery went well, and I am healing well. I am looking forward to rehab and returning to more normal, pain-free functioning in my arm and elbow. I am thankful for the good care I received.”

“As always, Dr. Barr enters almost ecstatically with an open mind and well-ground conversation, emphatically describing my situation with analogies of such greatness and possibilities, with the best laid-out imagination, determined not just to see a patient but to enter their world and see their true life. Dr. Barr has known me since 2001 and never forgets about me. Through over a dozen surgeries and experiences, he has raised the bar to an Everest elevation. With his continued support, I am not just striving for mobility once again but will be able to enjoy the life left in me more comfortably, with a bit more of his jokes and a new appreciation for what's to come. I would like to say thank you to Dr. Barr.”

“Dr. Barr is experienced and knowledgeable. He is down-to-earth and explains everything in a compassionate manner. The surgeries he performed on me were complicated in different ways, and he always kept me informed. I have recommended Dr. Barr to some friends who needed ortho care, and they both were very pleased with him.”

“Dr. Barr saw me for a knee issue but also spent time on a more recent injury to my shoulder. I appreciate that he listens, encourages my continued activity, doesn't patronize me, and offers conservative treatment options.”
