I was very happy with my appointment. Dr Barbanel was very informative and went over all areas of the weight world even if I was not previously interested. I appreciate the time he took to go over everything at a level I could understand.

This was my first experience with Dr. Barbanel. He was attentive and interested. More importantly he was supportive - it wasn't a focus on what I still had to accomplish, it was advice to be proud of what I'd done and committing to continuing the work. I really like [...] and this is no reflection on how she's dealt with me - she's very good too and I look forward to talking with her. But you've asked specifically about Dr. Barbanel, so that is why I focused on his wonderful attitude.
