I was a patient of DR. Robert Barnes prior to his move to what is the CMG on Bow Pointe dr. He actually replaced one of the best physicians I have ever been attended to by. Prior to DR. Barnes leaving this small office oriented practice around the corner from the mega complex he is at now, I was quite satisfied with my experiences with him and his excellent medical assistant Tracy. Very much so. It wasn't perfect by any means, and I fully realize you will never find perfection, but he was truly both effective, and personable, in the treatment of myself, and my family. That was roughly twenty years ago. Since his move, in mine and my family's experiences, it has been both a disastrously unprofessional, and an ultimately ineffective move for the worse. As everyone knows, DR. Barnes is ridiculously beyond his means with respect to both his patient count, and his blanket diagnostic responsibilities within this new Clarkston Medical Group orientation. It is absolutely IMPOSSIBLE to see DR. Barnes without dedicating an entire day to the affair due to he and his staff being at a very minimum, predictably, 1.5 hours behind schedule. Not to mention the fact that the staff seem to change like the weather in Michigan. Three times I have personally been referred to physicians within his network that he has recommended to me, and every time those experiences resulted in immense disappointment. What has happened to the genuine concepts of astringent integrity, and a sincere level of dedication to a personable bedside manner within the medical profession? Sadly, it has been my experience that you will find neither while being attended to by DR. Barnes within the CMG, which is really just one big "take a number" corporate machine. This is NOT a slam against DR. Barnes personally, as I believe he is both a kindhearted man, and a reasonably good physician that works very hard at his profession. It is however, an absolutely accurate assessment of what has become of his association within the Clarkston Medical Group due to mine and my family's subsequent experiences within as much.
