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 had to deal with L&I for six years before I was allowed to have my hands repaired. By then I could hardly use my hands for anything. Dr. Barthel made me wish I'd found her six years ago. She repaired my problems and my hands are in great shape. She's very good at what she does, and I would more than trust her again if I needed help March 17 2019

I had Ulnar Nerve Release surgery, carpal tunnel surgery and a ganglian cyst all removed the same day. I wouldn't recommend all three at the same time, but if you do, no one does it better than Dr. Barthel. I'm going in for the Ulnar Nerve Release on my other arm, and Dr. Barthel will do this one as well. I can't say enough about her and her staff. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of her specialties.

Traci would get a higher review if she didn't miss my diagnosis. I presented with carpal tunnel like symptoms and after two years and 10 visits I never got the help I needed from her. She came highly recommended but missed the mark with me. I was ultimately diagnosed by myself from health message boards and later confirmed by a vascular surgeon, I have Thoracic Outlet Syndrome.

Dr. Barthel removed a ganglion cyst from my child's wrist. Wished we didn't wait months to do it, we were trying to see if steriods worked. I understand that it is process but the surgery was the last option and it worked. From beginning to end, the process was great. D. Barthel was very helpful during the office visit as well as day of surgery. She was available to talk on the phone after surgery and spent time to answer my questions. Her office was also fantastic for this entire experience!

Likelihood means probability. If I met a person who needed a hand surgeon, I would strongly recommend Dr. Barthel. BUT, the probability of my meeting someone who needs her skills is near zero. I am not going to approach anyone on my own to recommend a physician. So why don't you find some one who is a more skilled user of our language?
