Patient Reviews
Feb 25, 2022
Dr.Barger, is a phenomenal doctor. He is the epitome of superb doctor, he’s compassionate, caring, kind, patient & very sensitive to his patients needs. He has integrity, he’s professional & does everything in his power to care for his patients with ultimate compassion. Dr.Barger has a great sense of humor & always positive at every appointment. I have been his patient for many, many years, he has been treating me for knee issues (sports injuries & arthritis) treating both knees with Supartz injections that are literally a Godsend. He will be retiring in May of 2022 & I am heartbroken, because there will be no one to fit the shoes of this GREAT(man)& doctor. Dr.Barger always listens intently to my medical concerns & always makes me feel that he sincerely cares about me as his patient. He’ easy to understand from a doctor/ patient perspective. I would have recommended him to anyone, but he’s retiring. He is one of the best doctors I’ve ever had in my life. Very sad to see him go. :(
