I've never had a bad experience with Barb because she talks to me about all my concerns and listens to me if something new she is not aware of recently occurred since seeing her at my last visit. She puts you at ease right away and always has a pleasant demeanor. In my opinion she is one of the best providers you have at St. Luke's.

This provider was very helpful in understanding my concerns for my back problem and took the information I provided seriously and consulted with my treating physician about my next course of care

Barb listened to my frustration regarding inability to get relief for my long term chronic back pain after numerous injections, etc. She was sympathetic and not hesitant to my request for second opinion for surgery. SHE referred me to neuro surgeon and then sport medicine for second opinions all the time Barb checking in with me when she received their office visit notes.
