Hello everyone. Has anyone had surgery at Barix Clinics?? I'm switching dr's and have an appoitment on Friday. Can anyone tell me how long it took from begining the proces to finally having surgery.. I have the following completed: 2 nut, 2 psych, 2 sleep studies (1 with & 1 without c-pap), colonoscopy, physical, lab worrk, chest xray all completed. Will be doing pulmonary function next week. If anyone can think of anything else please let me know. I have been working on this surgery since April and had to change surgeons due to his staff.. I am anxious an would like this surgery complete before the end of the year. Please give me some feedback

Thank you!! Who was her doctor? I am seeing Dr. Kaczmarski. Hoping for surgery in December!!!!

This post is pretty old but I just got approved to have surgery here and I'm scared..I find barely any reviews on this place and my doctor is new to there and I have no information on him as to how long he has been doing this and etc..I need to call and ask to speak with him. But this place just looks deserted like no one goes there anymore lol maybe bc I was the last consult at 6pm but still... How did you guys surgery turn out here ???

I was seeing him because he is closet to my home but I'm going with the doctor that did my mom, sister and two girlfriends surgery. Dr Meilahn at chestnuthill hospital. They are awesome there.

Did you have any issues with him? I already did all my medical clearances and it was submitted to my insurance so I guess it's too late to switch. But I can't get surgery now unless my sugar levels get below 8.

I didn't feel as comfortable with him. I felt that he rushed a lot and they didn't give me enough info. Plus if there was any emergency i wanted to be at a hospital.

Oh ok. Yeah I kind of felt the same but I had a list of questions and he stopped and answered all my questions. It was like 6pm though and I was the last patient lol.
