Dr. Blair is extremely dedicated and conscientious. Her pre-appointment prep is impressive- reading through all my records before I arrive so she is completely up to date. And her office always responds to me quickly when I have a medical issue. Top notch doctor and staff.

Dr Blair is extraordinary. She has helped me get my life back by coordinating my care through a few other of my doctors, by checking in frequently making sure I'm still on track, and always letting me know what the results of tests are

Dr. Barbra Blair, met her only one time, was extremely professional than any other doctor that I've seen other than my own doctor. Of course, she was on time, courteous, even knocked on the door to come in, which has shocked me. Very thorough, and I wouldn't mind keeping her until things over with me. I guess that's it. She just called me back the other day to tell me about the blood work. I had a programmed in the phone, so I knew it was her. And I guess that's it. I don't think I have any follow-ups, though.

Dr Blair is not only professional, experienced, knowledgeable but most of all empathetic and truly cares. Dr Blair goes the extra step to visit whenever I'm hospitalized and follows up when necessary. With Dr Blair I know I'm not just another medical number, zoom contact, a billable patient. We need more medical professionals like Dr Blair.

From the day I met Dr. Blair, she was kind, compassionate, very concerned and curious about what I needed for care, and she definitely followed through with making sure that I was serviced in the best possible way. She was always concerned and interested in the process and making sure that I understood every step of the way, what was going on, whether it was just follow-up or preparation for surgery. She was really, really wonderful to be around and a refreshing personality to get to know, always happy, always smiling, and just really comforting and welcoming. I would definitely recommend her to anyone. I feel blessed and fortunate that I had the opportunity to get to know her and work with her.

Dr. Blair was wonderful. One of the best specialists I have ever seen. However, I have been trying to send additional medical records to her. I called and left a message. Nobody called me back. I sent a request through the patient portal asking for either an email address to which I could send the records or a physical address to which I could send a flash drive. The response I got was to fax the records to the office which totally ignored what I requested in my portal message. The records are probably around 300 pages long. They're already electronic so printing them out to fax them is ridiculous. I don't have a fax machine.
