What Our Clients Say About Us

  • "Visiting with Anthony J Barone MD has been a breath of fresh air."
    Chris Fitzsimmons
  • "I have been a patient of Dr. Barone’s for over 20 years. Excellent physician and meticulous surgeon. Perfectionist. Great staff."
    -anonymous
  • "I saw Dr. Barone today and he is an excellent doctor. He didn't rush me out the door. He discussed my ear and sinus problems with me and the previous meds I was given by another doctor. He answered my questions and told me what was wrong. I had been to another doctor who did not correctly diagnose my problem. Dr. Barone is the best. I wish I had gone to him first."
