Got prosthetic joint infection following hip surgery . Always pleasant and courteous .The nursing staff at his infectious disease OP clinic were excellent . SHR sends his regards to Frankie . A very expensive antibiotic effected a cure and I was able to retain the artificial hip . So many thanks ! SHR .

I have been seen by many doctors during my years for different ailments and my expectations were surpassed when I visited the HRI and saw Dr Barlow. Dr Barlow is professional, informative, courteous and very caring and understanding. I would highly recommend Dr Barlow, and his staff, to anyone seeking medical treatment in his specialist field.
