Dr. Michael Barron, MD

Extremely Satisfied and Relieved.

He’s right to the point, explained things, dry bedside, but I would take an intelligent, experienced cardiologist over a easily swayed, smiley less intelligent acting Dr. anyday! I highly recommend Dr. Barron for any of your cardiac needs. Brilliant man!

Dr. Bolzano treats you like a person. Her lessons to what you have to say. He does not talk over your head. He has a calming way about him. If you need a cardiologist, Dr. Balzano is the only pick I would recommend.

Dr. Barron is the best cardiologist in Sarasota and not only is he my doctor but he took care of my husband who had double bypass and also took care of my Dad. He is awesome.

My husband and I both see Dr. Barron. As a Registered Nurse I am quite particular about the physicians we see. Dr. Barron is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, patient and caring. He explains everything at a level even my husband can understand. I have complete trust in him.

I was first put off by the fact they had no alcohol or wipes during a visit when we had COVID and then I experienced a rude type of admin and desk person who did not understand my frustration. I also felt Dr. Barron was impatient, and in a hurried mode when he talked to me. I found the office old and dated, with worn chairs, and did not feel this was appropriate in a medical office envirnoment. They also did not give me correct advice from my blood work and exaggerated the results. I know, because my sister is a Dr. and guided me about these results. I would not recommend this Dr. for cardiology.

Saw him for the first time today and was greatly impressed. He spent considerable time going over my cardiac history and reviewing it with me. The nurse was also wonderful taking my history and doing the BP tests and the cardiogram. Overall, one of the best physicians I have seen in my lifetime.

Even a patient for ten years. He is kind persistent and a great diagnostician. He has done well by me.

Very thorough. Unrushed, and listens to what you have to say. Cares about his patients. Office staff is very nice in addition to his nurse. Would highly recommend Dr Barron.

My mother and I both see Dr. Barron. He has been taking care of us for many years. We are Very happy he is our cardiologist.

Listens and explains options

This doctor and his assistant were rude, uncaring, and lacked interpersonal skills. When Dr. Barron entered the examining room, he proceeded to tell me that I had diabetes, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteoporosis. I said that is not true! He then said the my primary care physician could be sued for sending him such a report. He is obviously not familiar with the Medicare requirements for primary care physicians when writing soap notes for Medicare patients. Dr. Barron did not read the most important sentence in the report. This "is not to be misrepresented as having these conditions unless specified in the assessment area. These illnesses ARE NOT in the assessment area. Lastly, Dr. Barron's hands were noticeably shaking. No shaky-handed, ill-mannered cardiologist will EVER be my doctor. It's incredible that any persons would give him five star reviews. I would strongly suspect the origin of such reviews!

What a pleasure to find a doctor who actually LISTENS to what you say -- and is more than willing to explain things in simple terms. He has some common sense and is not quick to put you on a ton of meds unless they are absolutely necessary.

Dr. Barron is an excellent and caring physician. He is more than willing to talk with patients and answer their questions. Dr. Barron's explanations of your, at least mine, conditions are clear and complete. If there comes the time I need heart surgery then it is Dr, Barron's hands I want holding and repairing my heart.

I am so happy that I found Dr. Barron a few years ago. He is so kind, caring and really pays attention to you when you talk and try to explain things that are going on. He never rushes you and explains in detail and makes you feel relaxed and calm when you leave his office. It is hard to find doctors like him around. I have given his name out to many people who are looking for a heart doctor. Thank you so much Dr. Barron for all you have done for me. I really appreciate your kindness.
