I was referred to Dr. Barry because he’s the expert in the area to deal with the type of vision issues that I have. My vision has dramatically improved under his care. He’s an excellent Dr and is very compassionate.

He was great. Super personable and I felt he was very trustworthy with my little one when he had a procedure with him. Everyone that I encountered said he was the best of the best.

Dr. Barry is very knowledgeable and has a wonderful bedside manner with children. I would recommend him to any parent needing an exam for their children. A provider who goes above and beyond! We have always been very happy with the office, scheduling, and location with this practice. The front staff is kind & courteous. They have you checked in and out quickly. Kudos for treating your patients and families, like family.

Typically Dr. Barry is very patient and kind. Today, we waited an hour in the office room. My son who is 4 began to get extremely agitated and annoyed for waiting as long as we had so I gave him a pen and stick notes to use and Dr Barry seemed very annoyed that he was using them. He rushed us which I assume because he was running behind. He may have been having a bad day, but his body language and tone were unfriendly.
