Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I was a new patient starting in February, I had been without insurance for over 8 years and not had a physical during this time, On my first visit I was impressed with the thorough examination and the kind, professionalism of Dr. Barr and all the nurses. As a result of some test that day I was referred to the ELFP Imaging Center for more test and I was just as impressed. After some blood work came back I have made 7 visits 2 weeks apart back to ELFP Hwy 81 for injections and blood test, each visit I needed no appointment, just walked in and was back out in minutes. To all the staff and Dr. Barr Thank You! R.Downs

The staff was very friendly and accomodated my needs. The MRI technician was by far one of the best. She was a true professional and compassionate individual.

Dr. Barr wasn't interested or compassionate for my pain. I went to Dr. Bar's office to get an MRI that was made clear to him before I made the appointment. It cost me $33 to get to his office and he didn't do anything. And told me to reschedule to get my MRI. I wasted my time and my money. When I was asking questions he wasn't interested in what I had to say. He interrupted me and talked over me.
