Dr. Barbesino is one of the best doctors I've ever been to. He really is very attentive. He listens to all my questions. He answers my questions. And he's clear when he gives me a diagnosis and is accurate. So it's very helpful. And he's available if I need him. So I would suggest him for anybody and everybody. Thank you.

He was extremely rude and completely ignored everything I wanted to say. He kept asking me if I was certain about taking the medicine and if I had done the blood work that my PCP had ordered (all the information was in my gateway). I tried to express some concerns that both my cardiologist and my PCP had agreed were related to Graves' disease, but he didn't even bother to listen.

I have been seeing Dr. Barbesino for the last 13 years and he is just, he's awesome. He does his own blood pressures, he does his own ultrasounds, he does his own vital signs, he listens, he talks to you, he gives you the information that you need and he's just awesome as far as I am concerned. I had cancer and it was treated at another hospital and he took, he took care of and he's been taking care of me since 2012 and he's just, you don't find physicians like him anymore. He could be teaching young physicians how to be a physician. Thank you.
