Dr. Barbour offers a minimally invasive procedure—TENEX Health TX—in which he can break up and remove damaged tissue, which is the cause of most chronic tendon-related pain related to Golfer’s or Tennis elbow. This advanced technique, developed in collaboration with the Mayo Clinic, leaves healthy, soft tissue undisturbed. It takes only a few minutes, and no sutures or stitches are needed.
Dr. Barbour enjoys traveling, sports, and the outdoors.

My very 1st time visiting this office, due to the unfortunate closure of AOC. My left hand had been giving the blues ☹️. Making an appointment through the website was easy peasy. Upon entering this office after i checked in. Being greeted with a smile by the young ladies sitting at the front desk, the nurse, the x-ray technician and let's not forget Dr. Barbour. The level of professionalism, mannerism was just absolutely phenomenal. I also noticed how the staff are exceptionally patient and caring with the elderly as well. 🥰 Dr Barbour didn't rush my visit he asked all the necessary questions to see what he could do to solve the issue i was dealing with. He offered some options, after he observed what he saw on my X-ray. Iam happy with the decision WE made.
He doesn’t rush! Looks you right in the eyes and allows time for you to process information and ask questions☺️
Dr. Barbour and Sophie were excellent. I was nervous about getting a cortisone injection in my wrist but it was a breeze with them
Great! I’m hoping this procedure will work and no surgery!!
He’s the best!
