Dr Barros was my primary care doctor for more than 5 years. I started going to him because he was one of the few listed on my not so good insurance at the time. I have multiple sclerosis and also 4 or 5 herniated disk in my back. My wife wanted to meet with Dr Barros with me for consultation of my health concerns. After the meeting and other issues after many other appointments she thought he was incompetent and I should get a new primary care doc. I should have listened to the wife.

On one appointment I had a 1/4 inch skin tag or something on my leg and had Dr Barros remove it. He did remove it but he also made a long maybe 3 inch incision mostly superficial I am guessing so he could bill my insurance for a lot more money. My wife called him a butcher when she saw what he had done.

He keeps bad records and can't remember what he is treating you for from one appointment to the next. At one time he had fairly good staff but the turnover of his employees in the last year or so his help has been incompetent also.

Barros has had me on pain meds for several years. At my last and final appointment they somehow performed a drug test wrong and he would not renew my prescription for the pain meds and would not even talk to me about it or do the test over. If you know anything about pain meds it is dangerous not to taper down the doses for a patient and withdrawals can be very bad and have complications. Dr Barros just abandoned me to suffer. I left his office and had the same test done correctly at another office and they are tapering me down correctly from those meds.

I am now going to find another primary care doctor that is hopefully more competent. This doctor has never checked my prostate or given a very good overall checkup. I probably should have requested better checkups but that is not my job it is his. I am not feeling well and hope my new doctor does not find anything Dr Barros may have missed.

When i called to inquire about a procedure cost , the front desk person started listing a variety of tests that are performed with the service in question. When asked for the total cost of the procedure(form I-693) ,she said that the doctor charges separately for each test .Thus making the cost of the procedure $677. That being a total ripoff , i contacted immigration and asked them the requirements for i-693. I understand that they cannot control the amount that the civil surgeon charges for the immunizations .I do wish however that she would let me speak to the doctor but she said that the doctor has "BETTER'" things to do . ok, well just for the record :no u do not need a drug test for form i-693 hunny . So since the doctor has better things to do then speak with potential patients ,i guess he wont be seeing my $677. I happen to find another FAIR civil surgeon that only charges $200 all inclusive .And thats after calling a few other doctors that charge the same , i went with the one closer to my house. Its sad how poor customer care skills can cost a doctor (who is unaware of his front desk employees attitude )money. Now this was not to rate Dr.Barros because i never got a chance to even visit him , after being barked at by the appointment person who picked up the phone .
