Patient Reviews
Mar 30, 2019
I received gastric bypass from Dr. Barnes, and had ongoing visits, all of which where informative and helpful for me to lead a somewhat regular life. I developed a ulcer and Dr.Barnes made sure we treat it the proper way, that was a tough tough one, but Dr.Barnes always listined and showed compassion. Through his guidance, today I have no ulcer. And my vitamin levels are maintained. I have since moved away, but I still appreciate the time and effort he put in and would do it all over again .
Thank you for sharing your feedback about Dr. James Barnes, MD.
