*Dr. Barber was wonderful from the very beginning. She was delivering difficult news but did so empathy, professionalism, clarity, and confidence. She made me feel like I had options/control over decisions and always took my wishes into her plan for me. I trusted her from day 1 and that has only grown stronger.

While the information *Dr. Barber provides is complicated & difficult to understand sometime. I know she cares and is providing best treatment/options. It would help if she explained things in simpler terms.

I'm very happy with the care I received from Dr. Emma Barber. She is an ideal doctor who listens to me , tries to understand what I am experiencing, very caring , and treats me with professional courtesy. She is very knowledgeable and talented at what she does and I also admire her for her confidence as it is important for me to have a doctor who know's what she or he is doing. She is honest and forthright and thus helped me make an educated decision with regards to my treatment (surgery).
