Felt like Dr. Michael spent enough time with me to answer all my questions and address my concerns. I didn't feel rushed. I also felt her advice was rooted in fact and medical science. She keeps up with the state of the medical arts.

Dr. Barbara Michael, is an excellent physician. She's very attentive and she explains things very well, and in a way that I can understand. She explained all options and included me in the process. I'm very pleased with her. I moved here recently from Georgia, and she has made having to choose a new PCP, a very comfortable transition.

I am beyond thrilled to have found Dr. Michaels and to have her as my Primary Care Physician.
February 17, 2025
Dr. Michael is one of the best doctors I have ever had (and let me tell you, since I have had cancer 3 times in my lifetime) I have had a lot of doctors. I hope Cone Health works hard to maintain great primary care doctors such as Dr. Barbara Michaels--there are so few primary care physicians, and I consider myself incredibly fortunate to be her patient.

Dr. Michael is fantastic! As the primary decision-maker for my family, I have enrolled my husband and two sons as patients. My husband is so impressed, he recommended Dr. Michael to his mother. She is also a big fan of Dr. Michael! Dr. Michael listens to understand. We talk about a wide range of topics, because she is interested in treating me as a whole person, not just a symptom or condition. I know she values me, and that is incredibly important.
