Patient Reviews
Oct 14, 2023
Dr. Barton took me on after another surgeon spent 2 years unable to correct my knee pain. Dr barton immediately laid out a treatment plan. He did a partial/compartmental knee replacement. After 3 years of extreme pain being treated with highly toxic and dependent medications I was 100% pain free in just a few months. He is well versed in his field and stays highly active in researching for new and better treatments. Prior to settling down and starting a practice in the shreveport area he was the orthopedic surgeon for the NEW England Patriots National Football Team. If you know the NFL they want the best working on their Players they have invested millions of dollars in.
