Dr Baron is the best
He was absolutely horrible and lacked all of any bed side manner. He was rude and assertive. He jokingly told me my body should heal without any medicine unless I had HIV! I was flabbergasted! He wasted my time and insulted me!
Dr. Baron was very nice. I was reluctant to see someone that I had never met or even heard of, but I was pleased at how nice and personable he was.
Great doctoring!
good
I am surprised that no labs were ordered.
I informed Dr about my attempt to get a prescription refill before going out of the country for 20 days. He shrugged and said he gets 50 messages a day.
Very good

I'm gonna be very very very sad when God retires. He's been my doctor for over 20 years. I love this guy.
Dr. Baron always listens and is thorough.
Dr. Baron's literal hands on examination of my lower back, legs, and feet was different from what I have grown accustomed to from MDs. His ability to lay hands on my back, detect and correct a problem with the position of my sacrum on the spot were a welcomed surprise. My wife, and MD also trained in Internal Medicine, said her training didn't include adjustments of the sacrum.
Today's Provider, Dr. Baron, provided me with world-class patient care!!!!!!

Been seeing Dr. Baron over 30 years and have always been satisfied with his service

Great care
I've been Dr Baron's patient for 20 years and there's a reason why. Dr Baron always makes time to hear your concerns and offer solutions both medical and therapeutic. Dr Baron left me with two articles about some of my concerns and ways to improve my health. I always leave with more knowledge and helpful advice. It's always appreciated.

Good experience
Dr. Baron is a godsend. He is so easy to talk to. I feel very comfortable talking with him. I'm very relaxed with him and I'm glad that he is there.
Dr Baron was outstanding
Dr. Barron is-hands-down- one of the best doctors I have ever had (and I have had some really good doctors before moving to Georgia and going to Dr. Barron). He is thorough, sensitive to my feelings as we discuss the issue(s) that brought me to the clinic, and interested not only in my immediate medical issues, but, when appropriate, explores outside factors that may be pertinent to the reason I have come to consult him. I have never left after a consultation without feeling both heard and also much better than before the appointment. His wisdom, sense of humor when needed to brighten my mood, and his tremendous compassion are all factors that reassure me after each visit that I am very fortunate to have him as my doctor.
Dr. Baron is an exceptional, caring , thoughtful doctor. He listens, gives good guidance, and educates his patients . He thinks a problem through and doesn't stop until he helps the patient find a solution
My experience to the Doctors office was good I will recommend to family and friends
The PA or NA was efficient and professional. With a smile.
Dr. Barron made some good points during the visit but spends most of his time starting at the computer screen and does not look at me or acknowledge me at times. He even walks out of the door while I/m still taking. He prescribes me meds that are not on my insurance and I couldn't get the medicine I needed. Waiting on him when I call up there to the office, I have my care postpone and cant get what I need, the care I need, when I need it.
I have been a patient of Dr Baron for over 30 years. Wouldn't consider anyone else!
Dr. Barron has been my physician for over 20 years. I always Appreciate the time he takes with me

I have been a patient of Dr. Baron's for over 20 years. He is thorough and has always taken very good care of me. I no longer live in the area, but I will not leave him for someone new.
I'm very pleased.
Dr. Baron is the best! Answers all questions and cares about his patients.
Since the blood work occurred at the end of my appointment, the doctor did not have current results to discuss with me. As a result, recommendations are made in a follow-up narrative and not in person. In the old days, the blood work was done a week prior to my appointment so the doctor could discuss the results with me.
Dr Baron has been great for 30 years!
Both Physician and Nurse were excellent
Dr Baron did a very thorough exam. Answered all questions and gave good advice. Had blood draw at 4pm and bloodwork results by 8pm. Dr Barons comments on blood work available early next day. Most impressive!

Excellent service
My primary frustration was that I was concerned that I might have pneumonia, however the office equipped for chest x-rays. Although I was provided a script to receive an X-ray at another facility, there's not one local to where I reside.
Dr. Baron has been my primary care physician for over 30 years he knows me and he knows my body. He knows my life style, my diet, and my exercise program. He knows my medications. When I need a doctor that is not a specialists, I want to see Dr. Baron, but the Emory gatekeepers tell me it will he 6-9 months before I can get an appointment. I am disgusted and outraged. How does this help me?
I had a great experience seeing Dr. Baron! He was awesome!
Good
As always Dr Baron is way above excellent.
