  • Dr. Barnick was calm, gentle, and had an inviting demeanour. He enquired about my experience with endometriosis, seeking clarification along the way. He showed sympathy and understanding. He asked me what I wanted him to do for me, and I finally felt involved in my treatment.

  • I had an open myomectomy. Two weeks later and 4 kg lighter :), I am feeling great. From the first appointment, I felt at ease. Dr Barnick is an expert, an accomplished gynaecological surgeon, and a wonderful person with a sense of humour and a positive outlook. Highly recommend!

  • Dr Barnick removed my fibroids via open surgery. My recovery process has been very good, it’s now been 2 weeks post-op and i’m feeling very well and my scar is minimal. Dr Barnick was recommended to me by a friend and I would recommend him. I felt very at ease.
