Patient testimonials
“The Alpine clinic is just a nice experience. You see the same people each time—I like the continuity and I like the relationships. Dr. Barnes and the staff are friendly, kind, understanding, knowledgeable, and they listen and allow you to make the decision that is right for you. Everything is coordinated—if I need bloodwork, I can just walk next door to the lab. It’s just nice to have as much on-site as possible.”
Sharon, 76., a longtime patient of Christopher Barnes, DO, who followed him to the Alpine Advanced Primary Care – Alpine
“I appreciate the kindness and the way people greet you when you come in—they’re always concerned about your day, your week, your health. It’s a little like a family atmosphere, and that eases up the stress and pressure of being in the doctor’s office. The clinic feels different than other medical offices because there are a variety of professionals – like the pharmacist – right there to help manage each condition.”
Gary, whose multiple health conditions – including sciatic pain, high blood pressure and prediabetes – are managed under the care of the team at Alpine Advanced Primary Care – Muskegon
