My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
I believe that the practice of medicine is an opportunity for me to use my gifts, talents and passions to partner with my patients, listen to them, understand their unique needs and come to know them as intimately as possible. Having developed close and personal relationships with my patients, and through the use of my acquired knowledge and experience as a physician, I am able and work side-by-side with my patients to achieve the best possible outcomes for their wellness.

Testimonials from patients of Dr. Barber
He always responds immediately either by phone or email . Having his email to ask a question is a great comfort!
Thank you Dr. Barber and your entire staff for creating a wonderful health care experience for me. Whenever I have an illness I always get the support and kindness to help me get back on the road to recovery. I am blessed to have you all as part of my overall well being system and I am grateful for your knowledge and medical expertise whenever I need it.
My husband, Harold, and I appreciate Dr. Barber's caring and thoughtful attention to our medical concerns. We trust and rely on his opinions. We've come to care about him also, and wouldn't want any other doctor. Besides being a very good physician, he is a good family man, and we appreciate that. We love Barbie too.
Don't go anywhere, Dr. Barber, we need you.
What a joy it is to have a doctor knowledge about my health issues, concerned, proactive and available on short notice. I am very grateful for Dr Barber.
Dr. Barber was there for me and helped me through a case of Dengue Fever contracted in Costa Rica. I forever appreciate his help!
Skip, thank you for the informed, intelligent, honest, and caring approach you bring to your practice. Thank you and your staff, too, for going the extra mile needed to get me accepted into a retirement community. I'll miss you when we move.

I believe that when your doctor is not only exceptionally gifted, absolutely committed, and uncompromisingly thorough, you are very, very fortunate. When you can also add that he is a true friend, well, then you realize how very special your experience is. Skip is in a league by himself. No one is better.
