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.

Hi DR Barnes, I was told I had Cervical Cancer when I was aged 29. I am from Ireland I was here in the USA with my Ex husband .. I was told I had cervical cancer 20 years ago .. I did not know what to do.. So Dr Barnes became my DR .. I thought I would die for sure .. I had a Radical Hystertomy at the Arlington Hospital it was wow a hard experience... when I was 29 now I am 52 soon in September .2018 so I made it .. I made it how well a good Surgeon and My time was not up I am sure lol...

I sought a 2nd opinion (cancer), and saw Dr Barnes. He is a national treasure. I felt terrible emotionally - he put me at ease, said we would treat this and let's get moving. Within two weeks, Dr Barnes had other tests in motion and plan together. In that time, the first dr still hadn't followed up with me. I highly recommend Dr Barnes! His staff is great - they have kept in touch with me - the support is amazing.

Dr. Barnes was very good and straight forward when my mother was going through ovarian cancer. I would recommend him to every body. Also his assistance Joann P was also very helpful to my mothers needs as well. Although my mother has past I will never forget them. The Lombardi Cancer Center is a A plus in my book. Thanks for all your help.
