Dr. Barfield is always pleasant, friendly, and thorough. She listens and truly cares about her patient's well being. She doesn't rush and is willing to discuss one's concerns. She is a rare doctor in today's medical world. I trust her completely and have been her patient for many years!

I'm one to take online reviews with a grain of salt because I realize that there are many dynamics at play. However,negative the reviews for Dr Barfield are absolutely correct from my experience today. It felt like at best like an urgent care visit mixed with a lab visit. Once you talk with her, the reason why it's quick and easy to get an appointment becomes obvious. Wellstar needs to do better.

Yes, Dr. Barfield was very helpful and attentive. She's a very good doctor and I appreciate her help. Then also the nurse, Lauren, that was there I think yesterday when I was there, was also very good, very friendly, very helpful too. So I'll give high marks to both. Thank you.

I got there on time and I was able to see the doctor quickly. She came in, was able to see me quickly and very pleasant experience. It helped me meet my needs and some other things that I brought up that I didn't put in the ... when I scheduled the appointment, I forgot to put in, but she helped me with those, but that as well.

Medical-wise, nurses, staff were good. However, trying to call the practice with questions or any issues, nobody ever answers the phone. You call and you call and you call and nobody answers. Eventually, somebody will call you back, but at that point, you may be too busy to answer the call. And then you try calling back, and right after they called you, nobody answers the phone. That is very, very frustrating.

It was our first meeting. Time was an issue. There were things I wanted to discuss but I was told before to choose which to discuss on this initial visit so I did choose just one.The Staff, the medical assistant was wonderful! Nice front office staff. The following comments have nothing to do with Dr Barfield but I just need to say it- I love Wellstar but it seems lately that it is difficult to get in to see a physician at the Health Park Avalon- wait times for an appt is 2-3 months and then on two occasions- two different doctors rescheduled requiring an additional 2 months or so before being seen. If this is happening to other patients- may want to evaluate it and see if this can be improved. 2-3 or in my case 3-4 month wait is too long. Thank you

I always feel like I'm putting Dr Barfield out and she's more concerned with staying on a schedule. Her personal skills are lacking and every time I leave I think I would be better finding someone that was more dialed into me.

Dr Barfield gave me a comprehensive exam and made recommendations on items I discussed with her. The reception staff was great. Lauren the nurse I had was wonderful and as always Dovie did an amazing job drawing my blood. It was probably the best end to end experience I have ever had.

Wellstar’s Center for Best Health Opens New Office in North Fulton
Patients in North Fulton who need weight management assistance have a new option, with providers who will support them at every step of their journey.
Dr. Sunkireddy is the physician overseeing this Center for Best Health location, and she is welcoming new patients to both primary care and the Center for Best Health.
The Center for Best Health offers a comprehensive approach to weight management and includes behavioral health, nutritional therapy and dietician services, medication management, meal replacement through Optifast and exercise management. When bariatric surgery is an appropriate option, our providers will offer referrals.
Our providers tailor care to each patient’s individual needs and lifestyle, creating the right treatment plan to help each person achieve their optimal health. The interdisciplinary care team includes a physician, dietitian, exercise physiologist and psychologist.
“We support you as a team in every step of your weight loss journey until you reach your goal,” Dr. Sunkireddy said. “We all support your efforts to keep the weight off by helping you develop a healthy lifestyle.”
