I’ve had a very long, traumatic journey following my c-section which lead to many complications including a life threatening infection, severe pelvic adhesions, intrauterine adhesions, and hydrosalpinx in both fallopian tubes. It has been heartbreaking to navigate infertility, as I was met with many doctors who were dismissive, careless, and left me in this damaged state with no regard.
Dr. Barnes has been the silver lining in all of this, from day 1 she was a breath of fresh air. She never made me feel rushed, she was extremely thorough, and answered all of my many questions with compassion and patience to make me feel comfortable with our plan moving forward. She instilled hope, and optimism with her confidence and expertise in my conditions. The day of surgery, I was extremely nervous given all of my prior surgical complications, but Dr. Barnes as well as every single nurse (both pre and post op) were wonderful at putting me at ease. They respected all of my wishes, were so attentive to every symptom, efficient, and more than anything, they made me feel cared for.
I am so grateful for Dr. Barnes and her team. I have been working in healthcare for 10 years and was truly impressed to witness such compassionate patient-centered focus with clear regard for safety.
