    Dr. Barker was incredibly condescending and made it abundantly apparent that my concerns and desires for my care were irrelevant to him. He ignored my medical chart, which recommended a treatment plan from a colleague who had unfortunately and unexpectedly passed. While I can appreciate separate providers having differences of opinion in treatment plans, Dr. Barker's dismissiveness was unprofessional and unwarranted.
