Had Breast Augmentation in August 2018, I was so confident with Dr Barr after the consult that I did not feel the need to see the other Sudbury Plastic Surgeons. His office and operating room is lovely and the staff nurses / Cordinator are so nice and helpful. Dr Barr made me feel comfortable and took the time to explain what expectations were realistic and not. When it came time to try on the implants he was honest with my husband and I and advise that what I had picked was “too big” for my body which I appreciated, I feel like some surgeons would put anything u wanted and not take into consideration your life style, future bra size and your overall proportion. After the initial implant sizing I still had doubts on size so I went back a second time and he took the time to come and speak to me again and guide me with the decision. Booking for surgery was a couple months away however they had a last minute opening the following week and I jumped on it. The surgery went great and the post op care was amazing. I phoned the nurses several times for kind of stupid questions and they were happy to answer them. After surgery I had one breast that took longer to settle and Dr Barr had me come in for weekly follow ups. I am so happy I choose someone local because going to Toronto I would not have had this type of care. I am strongly considering another surgery and would def go see Dr Barr again. Price wise I would say he’s the same if not a bit more expensive than other Platic surgeons . However totally worth it, especially not having to go to a hospital for surgery is amazing!

Back in 2009, Dr. Barr performed breast augmentation, liposuction, and abdominoplasty on me; and just last year I had my implants removed (for personal reasons) along with a lift (mastopexy).
Hands down, Dr. Barr is one of the most amazing surgeons that I have ever met who really made me feel safe and at ease before and after each surgery. He and his staff were extremely friendly and caring, and really made me feel like a person and not just another patient. I was very nervous before each of my procedures and Dr. Barr and his staff went above and beyond to make sure that I was comfortable and mindfully at ease, addressing any concerns that I had.
I am so please with the work that Dr. Barr has done, and have never once had anyone notice the fact that I had a tummy tuck unless it was pointed it out. Even after having another child post tummy tuck, my stomach is still just as flat and toned as it was after I had the surgery. I couldn't recommend anyone else more qualified and more passionate about his work than Dr. Barr.

His administration staff were not professional at all; they messed up appointments so many times. Calling the OHIP for the procedures was vague and uncertain. Administration did not bother to contact me for refusal though the procedure was couple of weeks away. Only response was that the refusal from OHIP was by a phone call which made me to doubt that any action was taken in the first place. Wish to have the OHIP refusal in a written form from the government. Also, Information of the follow up procedures little is said and little to expect. Scheduling for the follow up also messed up since the procedure appointment was messed at first. As a result, sutures were supposed to be removed by certain date was not removed ended up with non dissolvable sutures left behind which is causing lots of anxiety. Dr. Barr is good I rate him well but administration need some work I rate them poor.

I had rhinoplasty surgery with Dr. Barr and am thrilled with the results! My nose used to be something I stressed over daily. I had a large bump on the bridge of it. Now, I don't think twice about having my profile seen. I can't thank Dr. Barr and his amazing staff enough! They were with me every step of the way, and never made me feel silly for asking a million questions. If I ever require another surgery, I know who to trust! Thank you so much :)

I had Dr barr in emergency after having a motorcycle crash as I was told he was the ligament specialist. I had 1 broken thumb and 2 twisted fingers. I had also torn my right shoulder. He basically told me that because my accident was self inflicted(motorcycle) it wad to bad fur me. He did not want to have my shoulder looked, told me it would heal by itself. He put a cast on my left arm from my thumb to my elbow(broken thumb) and said my 2 other fingers would heal by themselves. After 2 more consults with him after,nothing got any better. My thumb healed with only partial movementand my 2 other fingers are still twisted and have barely any stength. My shoulder had been screwed right from that start. 9 years later and things have not healed properly. I finally found a family doctor to refer me fur my shoulder and find out that 1 major muscle in my shoulder is 100 percent detached and receded. 2 other muscles are 90 percent detached. My thumb and fingers are still about the same. Shame on this guy...

Dr.Barr was amazing! Karren was amazing! The front desk woman on my second visit however, made you feel like you were bugging her just by being there. But I would definitely go back because Dr.Barr is the best and I love my breast augmentation!

Cannot say enough about this surgeon and his staff! If there was a 10 star option, I would give them a 10. Everyone was so professional and warm. I didn't really consider going to anyone else because I have several friends who have had their facial surgery with Dr. Barr and their experiences convinced me to finally address my sagging skin and crooked nose. Truly couldn't be happier with my new look. Thank you Dr. Barr, Carin and Chantal and all the staff for making my experience so great.

I recently had a bilateral nipple reconstruction with Dr. Barr. The entire process from consult to the final followup was extremely professional and easy. I was given all the information I needed at the consult to make my decision and all my questions were answered. I was nervous on the day of surgery, but the entire staff made me feel comfortable. The nurses are amazing. They explained every step, as did Dr. Barr throughout the entire procedure. As I healed, I had a couple questions for the nurse. I called once and emailed once. Both were responded to within hours and the information given was extremely helpful. I had a followup with a nurse as I healed and an additional followup with Dr. Barr after I healed to see the final results. It is clear that they truly care about their patients.
I am extremely happy that I decided to be treated by Dr. Barr. He is a highly educated, experienced, and professional doctor. The facility is amazing as well.
I highly recommend Dr. Barr and his staff. Thank you!!

Had breast reduction procedure in May 2018. Very pleased with results. Dr Barr and staff are very professional. Impressed with his top notch private clinic. Excellent pre and post surgery care. Dr Barr follows up with a call after surgery to inquire about any concerns. His nurse Chantal simply the best. Highly recommend Dr Barr. Would not hesitate to consult him again for any future procedure.
