I was a Patient of this Dr. Barry's. No doubt thanks to his previous malpractice suit , he was largely unable to provide me his medical opinion. Instead he consistantly referred me to a specialist , for almost every minor ailment I had. A Doctor should have the fortitude to diagnose medical ailments based upon his own training and knowledge, not pass the buck onto someone else. The final straw came when he wrote a mean spirited letter telling my wife she was being kicked out as a patient. Her transgression: Prefering to receive a physical once every two years rather than every year. He called her an ""outlier"" and advised me his new policy was to get rid of all patients who did not receive a ($600.00) physical every year. He made his deceision with respect to my wife without informing her of the NEW once a year policy or give her an opportunity to talk with him prior to his making such a drastic move. Clearly the caustic and sour attitude of his partner Alex Knudsen has had a negative effect on him.
Pros: Few Kids in the waiting room
