Dr. David Barnes
He has always been a caring and sympathetic physician. He listens to me and therefore can help him determine what the problem or illness is. I thank God for him. He has really help. Especially with me being a war veteran.

My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
My MDVIP-affiliated primary care practice is built around a comprehensive annual wellness program where I work with my patients to analyze their current health and work with them to create a customized action plan on how to improve it. I also get to return to my earlier days of practicing medicine with unhurried, individualized and proactive care. I will continue to address and help treat current medical conditions and other issues that may arise. Should you need hospitalization, I utilize the hospitalist programs at both St. Francis Medical Center in Monroe and Glenwood Regional Medical Center in West Monroe. We, in the Monroe-West Monroe medical community, serve northeast Louisiana, including Ouachita and Lincoln parishes along with southeast Arkansas.

Dr. Barnes has been our doctor for over 45 years and we consider him a friend as well. In that time we’ve never had any issues with getting an appointment or anything else. Now he’s even more available and he answers calls or text personally even on weekends. He’s our doctor for life and we hope he never retires!
Dr. David Barnes is only a phone call away or a text away. When my husband got ill, he not only answered the text but called and came by for a house visit . We truly felt like VIP’s!!!! He is the most dependable and kind hearted physician I know. The investment in this doctor pays for itself over and over.
When I was attending graduate school at N.L.U. in Monroe, I became ill. I called my mama in my hometown of Newellton to know what to do. She told me that someone from Newellton had just opened a medical practice in West Monroe and that I should see him. It was Dr. David Barnes. He was a few years older than I, but I knew him well because our families belonged to the same church and his mama… See more
