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.

An Excellent Provider
I have been seeing Dr. Barakat for a Pituitary issue for a number of years. He takes his time and makes me feel like I am his only patient. My mom sees him for Diabetic care. She is just as passionate about her care as I am. Ms. Lucinda and Ms. Sherease are amazing. You receive reminders to complete lab work before your appointments. This is a well run practice. Everyone is very professional and polite.

A Terrific Doctor!
I have been seeing Dr. Barakat for over a decade now, and he has been one of the best doctor’s I have ever had. He explains my treatment options very clearly, and my health has improved 100% under his direction.

5 star treatment
I recently saw Dr Barakat for ongoing issues. I have been his patient for over 10 years, and the level of service has remained consistent. I have not had a single bad experience with him or his staff. He explains test results, listens to my concerns, and answers all my questions. He also includes me in decisions about my health because he asks for my input on any suggested future changes in treatment. His staff members Sherise and Lucinda are equally wonderful. Shout out to them from a happy patient.I have been recommending his services to all my friends and family, and now I am doing the same online, to you.If you need an endocrinologist, the 5 star treatment with Dr Barakat is just a phone call away. Oh, and say hello to Lucinda and Sherise from me.

Experienced Endo Doc
First time seeing Dr. B and he really reviewed my chart and med history and made some key changes and brought my attention to things I needed to consider and think about. He questioned my previous treatment plan and I was thankful he did (it needed to be done).

Wonderful Man, highly appreciated and intelligent.
I have been seeing him for 11 years for a thyroid problem that’s not normal. He takes the time to listen and explain. In my eyes the best and I appreciate him very much as he truly cares.
