Friendly and communicative.
I’m very thankful to believe that Dr Barakat is going to help me determine the cause of my constant diarrhea. Two things I forgot to mention is that I have had significant weight loss in the last 2 years and haven’t been dieting and the other fact that Dr Barakat needs to know is that my Mother and her Father (my grandfather) died of Stomach Cancer. I believe that I remember she had been diagnosed with H. Pylori
Dr. Barakat was extremely competent, and caring before and after procedure. Very sympathetic and concerned for me! Explained results of the procedure well! All around positive experience.
