Patient Reviews
May 20, 2025
I will highly recommend Dr. Barnwell who was excellent in performing corrective surgery to be remove the fluid in my right lower abdomen. The original surgery was done by another surgeon to supposedly repair a hernia which definitely was a misdiagnosis. Even though, I am experiencing a few kinks during the healing phase after my surgery ; Dr. Barnwell has exhibited compassion and genuine concern for my issues. Thank you Dr. Barnwell. Gwen K.
