The sign of a talented surgeon is post-op pain and suture healing. I have had many surgeries over the past five years, and Dr. Barker did a great job. Manageable pain and beautifully healing sutures. We are fortunate to have him here in the triangle.

I had recently torn the labrum in my hip over a year ago from running and have been running in pain since then. Dr. Barker was excellent in diagnosing and educating about the injury. I had surgery to fix the problem, surgery went well, very little pain, excellent rehab and back to running three months post op.
