Rude & uninterested in patient. Typical visit over two years: call for appointment two or three times (heaven help you if you want anything from the staff. I once needed test results sent to a specialists and literally had to call twice a day for a week, while they said they'd do it right away). Once there, wait up yo an hour: all 6 rooms will be full. Once in exam room wait another half hour or more, listening to LaBarbera loudly berate her patients. You then get ten minutes to defend yourself from a series of accusations about not visiting enough, while her back is turned facing the computer. Generic advice was given. After a year, for instance, I was chided to cut down red meat: I'm a vegan. She'll forget prescriptions, so you'll need to go back. No refills without visit (and co-pay). In short: Avoid

They are almost always unavailable. It was difficult to get an ideal appointment time that fit my schedule. They ignored my questions and my appointment seemed rushed. They didn't give me advice that would benefit me at all. They only cared about what would make them the most money. They are always polite and never use foul language, which I really appreciate. It's always made me uncomfortable at other places when I've heard them use foul language, but they don't here. I know I can bring my kids, and not worry about it. This provider has no helpful information available online, apart from their address and phone number. They just have a basic listings page. She doesn't pay any attention to you because she's too busy charging your insurance on her computer for every question she asks you. She is negligent and isn't concerned with her patents at all. If your appointment is at 2, don't expect to be in before 3. She has no idea what she is doing, her staff is RUDE, and the service is horrendous. The only thing you can be sure of is a wrong diagnosis, serious issues and disorders to be neglected, and GOD FORBID you are sick and need urgent attention, you will not see her for at least 2 weeks and she will blow you off like dust... disgusting doctor, I have NO idea how she hasn't been sued already...
