Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I Love Cathy!

Incompetent nurse practitioner
I have never been treated so unkindly on a medical visit. This was a visit specifically for refills. The PNP lectured me 5 minutes about one of my medications and wanted to order another of HER choice. I refused and she ordered another medication without discussing it. I asked her if she had my dexa scan that was ordered on a previous visit and she rudely said “No” and proceeded to tap her wrist watch and told me my 10 minutes were up and left the room. She failed to send to my pharmacy any of the 4 refills that I handed her on a list. After calling the office several times she refused a refill on a pain medication that was prescribed by a Board Certified Pain Specialist, attempting again to practice medicine. This person makes the very kind Dr Barbara look bad.

Love Dr. Barbara
I was very nervous before she came into the room, when she walked in everything changed. I felt like I could talk with her about anything without her being rushed to the next patient. I really appreciated her whole team getting me setup with referrals and my next appointment.

Unprofessional Assistant
Since the previous six people that gave them 1 star (7 counting me), were all flagged and removed, I will put in 2 stars this time but reality is that Barbara's assistant Lori deserves 0 stars for treating the Doc and me unprofessionally. Thinks she knows everything. Constantly butts in and corrects doctor. Really bad. Loved Doc Barbara and I have heard the PA's are pretty good too. Skip this one.

DR. Barbra called my mothers house the day after my mother was seen in the hospital. The hospital had prescribed a medication my mother was allergic to. D.R. Barbra asked me if I had given any to my mother and informed me that my mother was allergic to it. I had the perspiration in my hand and told the doctor. She made an appointment to see my mother that day and asked me not to fill the prescription. I was so impressed at how quickly found mistakenly prescribed medication was caught by D.R. Barbra that I asked her if she would be my Doctor. I have been seeing D.R. Barbra Bialowolska-Romaniuk for seven years and I am impressed with her medical knowledge. I am hypersensitive to many classes of medications . I am blessed to have a very experienced Doctor of internal medicine that has managed my chronic conditions which knowledge and compassion.

Dr. Barbara is wonderful, I started seeing her when we moved to Wittmann and my Primary Dr. retired. I felt so knew from the first visit that I fount the right Dr. for my husband and I. I had a finder binder and did not realize I was hurt. I flew to see my Son in El Paso TX and back then a few weeks later flew to Georgia to see my grandson graduated from boot-camp. Not long after my last trip I started having a few issues and when I could not stay a wake and could not breath, I finally went to see Dr. "B" She started to examine me and we could not determine if it was a heart attack or? She Had her staff put me in her desk chair ( there was no wheel chair available) and her husband drove me across the street to Del Web hospital, it was faster than calling 911. I had a liver bleed from the accident. It had been bleeding since the accident and the airplane rides probable didn't help.

Exceptional! Very thorough. No matter whether your back aches or you have a sore throat. Every time we see her she listens, asks, and EXAMINES us from our head to our feet! Very smart, prescribes appropriately and follows up if a test is out of whack! Caring staff; new receptionist who is VERY ACCOMODATING!! I have a Master's degree in Nursing and have 50 years of working with doctors so I feel qualified to make this recommendation. I am picky about who takes care of my husband and myself! Rena and Dan

I think Dr Barbara is a decent physician; however, I've been a patient at her office for 5 years and rarely see her. I think in 5 years I've seen her 3 times; the remainder of the times I've been seen by her nurse practioner. My unhappiness is related to the way the business is run. At the end of last year I had an unfortunate fracture. When I called to make an appointment for pre-op tests, the person I talked to didn't want to give me an appointment. Evidently they don't schedule until you have your surgery date. I explained to her that I had a complex fracture, this was not a routine knee replacement and that my surgeon had told me that surgery would be within 2 weeks. She begrudgingly gave me an appointment stating that it was the only one available. When I went to the office on that date the assistant informed me that I was cutting it too close to the date of surgery (which was 4 days away) and that I would probably need to reschedule my surgery.
