Great communication skills; he takes his time to explain things and answer questions! He’s a skilled surgeon and I would never go to anyone else now that I found him!

I have every confidence in Dr. Barrett. This is my second knee replacement with him, and it is going even better than the first.

I was disappointed with my visit with Dr Barrett. I know he is an outstanding doctor and respect his advice but he was more concerned about my range of motion than the pain I’m currently in. I am 72 years old and not active. I don’t need my leg performing if I was back in my 50’s. I need to get rid of my pain. Physical therapy will cause me more
