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.

Blessed to have found Dr. Barthel
Dr. Barthel always gives a warm welcome and makes you feel comfortable and secure upon arrival and throughout your visit! She listens openly, and responds with her honest knowledge and feedback as well. I am now in my 28th week of pregnancy and I am thankful to say that she has never once made me, or my husband, feel uneasy or unsure about anything regarding her expertise and connection to our pregnancy journey.

Personalized and professional
I’ve always loved Dr. Barthel. This was our first OB appointment and she helped ease our minds and anxiety about all things pregnancy. She answered all of our questions and made us feel comfortable. She’s downright amazing! She had to leave our appointment early to deliver a baby, which of course we didn’t mind because babies come first!!

Dr. Barthel is my fav gyno!
She is always so kind. Quick to the point, absolutely straightforward, no nonsense, and no unnecessary questions unrelated to the care you’re there for. She doesn’t fat shame or weight shame (and she’s the first gyno I’ve had that hasn’t done that), and she’s very gentle with her exams. I will continue to see her until she stops practicing or goes somewhere I can’t travel to.

Kind, compassionate, gentle, and takes time
Dr. Barthel has been so informative, compassionate, and gentle in helping me with my first pregnancy. She really takes the time to answer all of my questions. She has made me feel so comfortable every step of the way. She is not pushy in anyway. She encourages you to make the best choices for you and your baby and provides all the information you need.

When my other Gyno was out on medical leave and than I was told my other gyno had to retire because of her illness. DR. BARTHEL stood up to the plate to take care of me. Went in for my annual exam. She came in with a smile on her face and talked about my past medical with Dr. P. IT WAS LIKE SHE KNEW ME AS WELL AS MY PAST GYNO. She sent me to get my annual memo and ultrasound. And when I needed more testing because of a finding. She called me herself. Which I like in a Dr. If it was not for myself stalling and waiting to see when Dr. P was coming back. I may not have known about my current conditions with breast cancer that I am under treatment today. And if it were not for the stalling my early stage of cancer may not have been found if I went in earlier. Which I had 2 Lumpactomies which the Dr could not been able to stay withing the safe margins. So now I will get a mestectomy in about 2 weeks. But I want to thank Dr. Barthel for helping me find my cancer. See you next year.

Remarkable Doctor
I cannot express enough how grateful I am for the care I have always received from Dr. Barthel. She is truly a heartwarming and exceptional doctor who goes above and beyond in every way. Her warmth, compassion, and genuine concern for my well-being shone through immediately, setting her apart from many other healthcare providers. She never rushes our appointments, and I always walk away without concerns. Dr. Barthel’s understanding and empathy is remarkable. She has a unique ability to make you feel completely supported, even when things are tough. I could not have asked for a more amazing and thoughtful doctor. Dr. Barthel has a special gift for making her patients feel valued and cared for, and I’m so thankful that she was there for me when I needed it most. If you’re looking for a doctor who is not only knowledgeable & skilled but also incredibly kind & understanding, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Barthel. She is truly one of a kind, and I am so fortunate to have her as my doctor.

Wonderful Physician
Dr. Barthel has been my physician for several years. She listens really well and helped direct me towards getting healthier. She was instrumental in discovering conditions I have. She has helped direct me through treatment options. Since diagnosis I have lost weight, my conditions are under control and I feel great. Combinations of physical therapy, medications, diet and exercise have me on a great path to better health. Dr. Barthel has been kind, knowledgeable and informative in providing me with my health care needs. Before I became a patient with Dr. Barthel I was searching for the correct physician to listen and provide positive, productive direction to improve my well being. And she has done exactly that for me.
