Douglas Barkin does not have an adequate amount of comments to generate the sentiment analysis.
Dr Barkin is always a pleasure. I was diagnosed with cancer and my other regular practitioner did not want to diagnose me. Dr Barkin was there with open arms and informed my oncologist with everything I needed. He was all smiles and human.
Very professional and empathetic. Took his time diagnosing her broken hand and guiding us. Follow up visits with X-rays very comforting and helpful.
Polite, attentative and helpful.
First time visit, not the patient but the parent.Dr barkin was very nice, and professional explained everything with detail even preformed an X-ray of the lower back on site which was surprising(thought I had to go off campus). Staff was very nice. Will go back again.
I went to him because I fell and sustained a shoulder injury. He took an Xray but saw nothing and gave me anti inflammatory meds.I went back 2 weeks later complaining pain is worse.. he said I need physical therapy. I asked him if I should have an MRI first to see what the problem is but he snapped at me and asked if I just want surgery. I told him I just want to know why I have so much pain. My mom was with me.. she began to ask him a question and he raised his hand to her and said that he has no time for her. I asked him why is he angry that we're asking questions. I felt awful and couldn't wait to leave. I did not follow up with his physical therapy instead I went to another orthopedic who suggested an MRI and found i have a tear in my rotator cuff.. and I will continue to be treated by my new doctor. Dr. Barkin was very arrogant and certainly did not take any of my concerns into his consideration. If I could have given him zero stars I would!
Took my son (14) to him for lower back pain he had had for around 9 months. Dr said it was a sprained back!! X ray showed nothing. Also pain going down his legs. Sent him for physical therapy. It did nothing really. Went back 4 or 5 weeks later and his diagnosis was the same. We requested an MRI which he didn’t want to prescribe because in his opinion it was s back sprain. Ridiculous. My son doesn’t even play sport so how would he get a back sprain. After insisting on an MRI which he finally agreed to prescribe a large tumor was found at the base of the spine which was pushing on his nerves causing the excruciating pain. Surgery was performed a week later by Dr Schneider and the tumor removed. No more pain. This doctor did not once call or check in with us before or after the surgery to see how my son was doing. Do not use Dr Barkin. He just doesn’t care.
0/5 stars if it was possible. Stay far away. I had overexerted my body through overtraining, and he would not look at more than 2 body parts per visit. He cuts you off if you try to explain your medical concerns longer than he can handle (seconds), and he does not give you time to ask any questions (you have to cut him off to say what you have to say). He does not explain what your medical diagnosis(es) is/are, and you can only get a record of his impression etc. if you ask for it at the desk; when I looked at mine, he listed the same body part twice (with different issues: that's not good if someone was going into surgery)! He tries to make the visit as short as possible as though the patient is a number on an assembly line. He denied me an MRI(s) without giving a reason, and I am still limited in my mobility even with multiple months at physical therapy. Please, find a doctor that cares for the patient as a person.
If I could give zero stars I would.Went to DR. Barkin for a 2nd opinion for my 16 year old who is having back problems. The first thing he said to us is 'why are you here"? He said you already are seeing an orthopedic ,so He then said, I can't do much more for you.Really? The worst DR EVER!!! AVOID. Do not waste your time. I do not know how he is still in business.
Absolutely Awful. I very rarely leave reviews and have never left one for a physician but Dr. Barkin was without a doubt the worst experience that i have ever had in the medical field. I had injured my left knee but there was no structural damage shown in the MRI. He saw me the first time for about 2 minutes and recommended physical therapy and anti-inflammatory pills without even looking at my knee. The physical therapy exercises only made my knee worse for a month and I was in worse pain than before. The 2nd visit was far worse than the first. He barged in the office and started speaking and barely paying attention to my responses. He left mid-evaluation and mid-conversation to talk to someone else. I forced him to look at my knee while he was constantly talking over me and arguing with me. I have never had a medical professional actually get confrontational with me but there's a first time for everything. A horrible experience from a horrible doctor.
Worst doctor I’ve ever seen. Terrible bedside manner and has no idea what he’s talking about

All the information you see here is based on our analysis of internet reviews across the seven major review platforms most used by consumers during their healthcare provider selection. The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals.
