About Francisco Barrera
Reviews for Francisco Barrera
I’m a type 1 diabetic and this office waited to the end of the day to send my insulin prescription that I was completely out of which wasn’t even written correctly so I spent a whole night in the ER because the pharmacy couldn’t refill my insulin and the doctor wouldn’t answer his after hours calls, unprofessional falls short for everyone in this office
I have been a patient of Dr Barrera for over 30 years and I have always received the best care. Dr Barrera and Rolando and the staff has always been wonderful to me and my family. Dr Barrera is a very compassionate and caring person....
Dr Barrera has been very compassionate and Answered my questions. When I have had concerns about my parents health. He has returned my calls on weekends and evening and given me peace of mind. Very grateful ????
I've been with Dr. Barrera for 33 years. He is very knowledgeable, and cares about his patients. Sometimes you do wait for about an hour in waiting room. But he will spend as much time as needed with you. He never rushes you, he'll make sure all your questions and concerns are answered.
So one of the PA's sent me for an ultrasound over three weeks ago and I still haven't heard anything back. Every time I call I just get put on hold for a such a long time and no one ever comes back to the line or I just get hung up on.
Great experience for my adult disabled son!
Save your sanity and DO NOT GO TO THIS OFFICE!!!! I’m still waiting since March 1st for them to send medical information to my insurance and today is 3/25.

This is the worst dr office ever the staff is very incompetent of working there and the dr needs to be disbarred for not addressing his staff to get on the ball and do there job. I just ganna find another dr that cares . Dont go here.

Dr Barrera has been my family Dr for years but lately I have very bad reviews for his staff I think Dr Barrera needs to get new staff they do not get job done I been waiting for help with my husband for month promise hospital bed and nurse aid still have not got bed but me myself and I been taking care of my husband working full time it's been hard but cannot just sit around wait for help this is crazy. I cannot believe they made me call my insurance to get the help and insurance said all they needed was referral has referral been sent nope also ask for handicap parking submit it like 6months ago call and they can't find it I give up if you sick might well just die cause you are not getting any help ...

Dr is fair. Have only seem him once for a few minutes. Usually see a PA. Horrendous wait times. Had the second appointment of the morning and had to wait over an hour PAST appointment time to be seen.
Excellent doctor and staff

I give it a 1 star , because it seems as hes staff is very unprofessional, and especially hes nurse Angie, she doesn't do her job , as my mom just called and the front desk lady , she didn't care to address what my mom was saying , requesting to see the doctor for an important matter .. and she refused to even care .

I like Dr Barrera as a physician. His office staff is incompetent. I have had unreturned phone calls and cancelled appointments. The patient is diabetic and needs medication yet no one can seem to handle the work.
At first I thought this doctor office was great , but its not my mom needed to see the doctor and the receptionist refused to give her an updated appointment because of a staff member there ( Angie) not doing her job properly... So the receptionist felt as i was screaming at her , girl if I was screaming is be flicking her off , my voice get high pitched ... like Barrera needs to get new staff members , because these don't want to do thier job
Staff in incompetent they say they fax your refills when they don't takes them forever to get back to for referral most of the time you have to call them back to remind them staff makes you wait outside till they call you in no where to sit only Dr office that does that. Overall this place needs to get more professional to many incompetent workers there waste of time I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

Staff is eager to make you feel like an insignificant person. The long wait times have always abeen a problem. Add a nurse who is not courteous. A well deserved one star.
I have been a pt of Dr Barrera over 11 years. The past couple years I have been very unhappy with the doctor and staff. They take forever refilling my prescriptions and make mistakes on my forms i need for work. I have to call to remind atleast 3-4 times before it is done correctly. The ladies in the front desk are rude and that goes for there nurse as well. I have been a pt of Dr Barrera over 11 years. The past couple years I have been very unhappy with the doctor and staff.

Waited in the parking lot (due to Covid protocol) for over an hour to be called into the office for my 8:00 AM appointment. At 9:00 I called and told the office staff to cancel the appointment because I had other appointments and they couldn’t tell me when I could go in. Dr. Barrerra is great...if you can get in your see him.
So many reviews stating the same issues. Dr. Barrera you Need to clean house in your front office!!! They are all very rude. I just called and the receptionist answered the phone told me to hold and put me on hold. Then when she got back on she said what do you want, who you on hold for. Who speaks that way. I told her what happened and she was annoyed and kept speaking rude. My parents love Dr. Barrera but I'm going to find them another doctor. Enough is enough. My parents need professional care not what they are getting. I've made many notes as to all the mistakes they make and I'm taking it higher up... Maybe file a complain with medical board.

My family and I have been patients of Dr. Barrera and his practitioner Mr. Ramirez since the early 1990's. Both the Doctor and practitioner are very good at what they do and are very professional. I have stayed with them because of my older son who falls under the autism spectrum. The needs for my older son have always been met by the doctor and the practitioner. They both are patient, kind and understanding with him. I give them a 5 rating for their care. Unfortunately, The staff has never met our needs. They are rude and run that office very inefficiently. My son almost lost his medicaid benefits because they don't follow through on paper work needed. I have to set up an appointment so that I can get paper work needed. And to get an appointment, I wait at least 30 minutes on the phone being transferred from one person to the other.. I have also found that they have put other patient records in my son's folder. We are military and could go to many of the different bases in town, however I find it very difficult to start again with his issues. We already have to jump through hoops with social security and then we have to jump through many more hoops with the staff at this office. I have mentioned to both doctors of the inconsistencies with the staff and they always say they will take care of the issues, but in almost 30 years of going to that office, nothing has improved.

Dr. Barrera is the best Doctor I've ever seen. He takes time with you. He explains things. He answers questions. Best bed side manor ever. He is just the best. Marty Aguilar
I have never had any problems with the Dr. and or his staff. We have always been seen by either the Dr. when available or the nurse practitioner. I would keep going to Dr. Barrera because his our Dr. and he keeps us healthy. Florentino Martínez, Angelina V Martínez ????????????????????
It was a non visit. Arrived 10 minutes early. Had to call in to check in. Left standing outside the office door. No one answered the phone. A worker went in. Said the person answering the phone stepped away. She would check me in. She didn't. After 45 minutes, an elderly woman without a cell phone wanted to go in. I called to check her in. When they answered the phone, asked about my own appointment. The staff said I wasn't checked in and they might be able to work me in. I asked about my actual appoint, the person who was to check me in, and was told, too bad. Nothing they could do about it. I ended up walking away without seeing the doctor. There is nothing good i have to say about this.
Workers are professional and caring. Followed all protocols for my safety during Coronavirus. Dr. Barrera took his time with me and answered all my questions.
Very inexperienced staff. Sat for over an hour and a half before we chose to leave and seek a new primary. Would not recommend to anyone. I cant review the doctor because we never got a chance to meet.
DO NOT COME HERE! IF I COULD GIVE THIS PLACE 0 STARS I WOULD!!!! I have been standing outside for my appointment for 15 min now Because they are on lunch!!! My appointment is at 1:30 and it is currently 1:42 and don’t open back up till 2?? WHY GIVE ME A TIME WHEN THEY ARE NOT EVEN HERE! This is inconvenient and ridiculous. Look for somewhere else to go.

If I could give this doctor 0 stars I would. My father recently was in the ER and almost died. The physician from the hospital told us to follow up with my father’s primary doctor.

He cares. Listens. He takes time to address and explain all of your issues. Dr.Barrera has a great sense of humor and gives you credit for having knowledge.
I’ve been seeing Dr. Barrera since I was in my 20’s. Every time I needed to see him or one of Pa, the girls would bring me in the same day. If I needed a refill or a referral, the girls take care of it in a timely manner. I’m truly blessed and thankful for the care. (Laughing) He said I make him feel old, because my son is now 20.

Not a good place to be seeing, the staff don't know what they are doing, you call and make appointment and when you get there the have no record, they gave yor appointment to some one us, and they take you as a walk in. not very good place to be you have to wait Long time to be seen by a PA not even a Dr.. Very despointed.
This Dr office is horrible...if you have a wheelchair or a Walker I do not recommend this place, it does not have anything for handicapped people. We repeatedly made appointments to this office but they say we never made one. This wasn't the first time. On top of that we call and ask them to fax papers, it doesn't get done we have to keep calling or wasting gas to make sure someone does their job.

I am giving this a big THUMBS DOWN!!!!! While Dr. Barrera is nice enough, his staff is horrible!!!! They are so unprofessional and seem to be unskilled at running an office!

I have known Dr Barrera many years professionally and my mother was a patient of his several years. We recently changed my mom's primary physician mainly due to awful front desk service.

My self and Mother have been going to Dr Barrera for sometime now and are very Happy with his and his Pa and their care of Our needs , i recently switched the kiddos over to him from a pediatricians office we had for years do to UN- attentiveness .

Dr. Barrera has been our family primary care physician for over 20 years. He and Rolando, PA, are wonderful to work with and extremely attentive. His staff are great even under the associated pressure of working for an extremely busy doctor’s office. We have developed a wonderful relationship with everyone here and don’t plan to change. As far as some of the negative reviews noted, I am sorry you all have had such a negative time, but assure you that even in the most difficult of circumstances the entire office and nursing staff want us, the patients, to be well cared for and attended. We love working with everyone, especially, Ari and Lupe. My family and I highly recommend Dr. Barrera to anyone needing a physician with years of experience dealing with a range of issues affecting all ages.

I’ve been seeing Dr. Barrera for 20 plus years. He is a down to earth individual and will tell you like it is. He is very thorough and will cover any past and present issues. I had to be admitted to Methodist and he oversaw my care. I see him once every six months for a check up. This man will continue to oversee my health care until I’m six feet under. Suffice to say I highly recommend this doctor.
I have been seeing DR Barrera for a little over one year and he has been very professional with all his advise as well as referring me to other Doctors that I also need to see....He has a very busy schedule and yes sometimes l do have to wait but other than that he is a very good Doctor and does have a Great PA and Staff....I have had no problems in seeing him....Nick Bustamante
I have never met a doctor who is more unprofessional than Dr. Barrera. While waiting for over 2 hours to be seen by the doctor I had to undergo the horrible experience of hearing in a room with closed doors the booming voice of the doctor screaming at another patient. Regardless of what the issue was I do not think that there is any excuse for a doctor to scream at a patient. After hearing this go on for over 5 minutes I felt so overwhelmed that I had to leave the doctors office while the doctors screaming could continue to be heard as I walked out the door. I immediately called my insurance to have him removed as my provider. I think what I had to experience today was inexcusable and feel terribly for the patient on the receiving end of the doctors screams. I do not think this behavior warrants even one star and would not recommend this doctor to anyone! I have never met a doctor who is more unprofessional than Dr. Barrera.

Excellent physician, excellent staff and practice.
Nurses are friendly, Dr Barrera is a great Dr
I have seen Dr. Barrera for over 20 years and it does take a good while to see him but I feel it is worth the wait. He has a great memory, time to listen and can explain medical conditions and medications in laymen s terms. He has helped me and my husband through lots of illnesses, allergies, flu's and surgery's. He has even helped us when traveling and needed extra medications for attitudes, etc. He always recognizes his patients and cares about you health. Fast on getting refills.

Been waiting for 2 hours. Save yourself and go somewhere else. Oh, and this isn't even to see the doctor... Just a PA.
Good Doctor but his medical staff are terrible never get things done when it needs to be, always calling to but never answer they need to be better educated and be more professional because they make the doctor look bad
Very poor service. They say they do walkin.. but even after waiting for 2 hours, they didnt give a ETA. Either they should let us know how long will it take to see or ask us to comeback later.. instead they didnt give any option, just making us wait is too disappointing.. I wont go to this place and wont recommend to anyone else
I'm sitting in a room for an hour now, and was in the waiting room for 1.5 hours. I expect my total waiting time is going to be 3 hours. This will be my last visit here. The office staff REALLY needs some training on how to properly schedule appointments.
Last 3 years and I have never seen the doctor, only the Rn. They are rude and don't help at all. I have highly blood pressure but every time the girl reads my bp says it's normal, I doubt she even know how to do it, they should get the machine to do it for them..... don't waste your time here
Been sent here by Tri West through the V. A. and it's been one HELL of an experience. They make you an appointment and when y5get there, you have to wait up to two hours after your appointment. You DON'T get to see the doctor, but you get his P. A. instead. You CONSTANTLY have to keep after them for you prescriptions and they DON'T seem to like returning calls. When you call them and they finally answer, you're put on eternal hold. I've gone to Sick Call in the Marine Corps and have had a way better experience. God help ANYONE who seriously needs their help. The staff there seems to be there just for the paycheck. Please DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY THERE! Been sent here by Tri West through the V.

Came here under the VA choice program and I have been waiting to be seen for 1:30hrs some other people longer than 2....... Might not want to be seen here
My family been coming to Dr Barrera for year's he's a very good doctor but his staff , are very rude when answering the phones and here in the office and very unprofessional. You can here them chatting away. I really don't like rude stuff in a doctors building ????
I've been a patient of Dr. Barrera for 15 plus years. In my opinion he is a good doctor. His staff on the other hand . They can be rude at times, and unprofessional.
I like the place and always pack a meal and a snack for the long wait time. The PA and Doctor are very nice and courteous with a genuine concern for your well being and health. Nowadays some doctors will just take your word as diction for their notes and stray away from the "hands on" approach which leaves me, the patient, feeling doubtful of his assessment. I wouldn't trust a mechanic who just glanced at my car and told me what the problem was. Luckily, you won't have that problem here! Both the PA and Doctor will, respectively, go with the hands on approach to get to the root of the problem and provide a plan on how to proceed. I honestly don't know why the place is slow since the staff and everyone who works there are always moving so fast ????. The long wait times makes the waiting aera toxic among those in the lobby. However, if you're just looking for a doctor to renew your RX, Fridays is the only day he'll schedule you, and there is fair amount of paperwork and labwork to get started along with maintenance lab work, but once you are set to go it's an in and out process and you'll be out within 30 min of your scheduled appointment! ????????

He has been my primary Doctor since 08' and i will always be his patient. He is very knowledgeable and full of life.
I would recommend for everyone who cares about their health to stay away from this office!! My mother has been seeing this doctor for at least 20 years! She had an appointment on 8/11/16. The rude receptionist of Lupe told my 79 year old mother that she had a different doctor on her insurance plan. But that's not true! My mother said she would do private pay. Lupe refused to allow her to do that! My mother passed away 13 days later. My mom passed away on 8/24/16. She was denied treatment!
Again, today, arrived with less than 3 other people in the waiting room. Waited an hour and a half to see a nurse practioner (not a doctor). My insurance recently assigned me to this office, and I have already started the paperwork to request a new primary care doctor. My wife & I have been here on multiple occassions, and I have yet to meet Dr. Barrera. I always get stuck with a nurse, and the Doctor seems to never be in the office at all. The staff is polite enough, but disinterested. The nurses are okay, but not doctors. The wait time is absolutely ridiculous. Why would I bother making a 3:00 appointment if I wanted to be seen at 4:30? I can't rate the doctor himself, because I haven't met him / he's never here. If you're stuck coming here because of insurance (like we are), file for a new doctor. If not, don't waste your time and / or money.

My mother had an appt at 3.30 today, at 5.30 she was informed that there were 5 people still in front of her. When she asked the front desk why they didn't schedule 30 minute appt like every body else, she was informed that they don't do that . Basically if you have all day to kill then by all means go to dr Barrera . My mother will be looking for another dr. By the way, this is the rule not an exception at his office.
I'm here for an appointment, I've waited for over one hour, I haven't been seen yet.
I called over 4 times just to get a referral, which they didn't gave me.
Very rude, irresponsible staff. They do not care about old patience at all. I call 20 time just to get referral but they do not.Even when you are seriously ill, they do not give you appointment at time.
Dr. Barrera has attended to my family since 1990. He practices with passion and genuine concern for his patients. Lupe and Ari are wonderful on the phone and front desk even when busy. He remembers trival things about me even after all these years and so many patients. I highly recommend his services!
