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.

Dr. It doesn't measure up to his condition and intellect. It's sad how a person with such an important specialty is not at the level of a patient with neurological problems. It takes humble people, who notice transparency and who have the ability to dispel doubts from people who come to find it. Not a Doctor who, instead of dispelling doubts, believes them. That your questions are like those of a judge and not a Dr. I regret that a person with your name arouses doubts and annoyances from a team. We live in the USA, a country of laws and democrats. I fled my country because of this, I will not allow the work of many and the support of this country to be tampered with, with people who need them. Hopefully my opinion will serve others who, like me, have left with such disgust and irritated by poor attention, attitude and not results. I am very sorry that things like this happen in this great country. Except that there are mechanisms so that no one hides their ineptitude behind a suit.

Dr Barbaro took care of my husband who had a subdural hematoma and csf leak. I could not have asked for a more caring, professional doctor .... my husband was in an Austin hospital from Sept 1-24, and it was a very serious situation. Dr. Barbaro and his team were amazing in the medical care they provided...

I had surgery at IU by Dr Barbaro, a hospital room wasn't reserved for me so after my surgery I was left on a wet gurney crying in the hall for six hours until I told my family to bring the car around. No bed side manner. He didn't even see me after the surgery at all. I would find anyone other than Dr Barbaro if I could it over again.
