"Our family has gone to Dr. Barp for many years for our foot issues. He's helped with every issue we have had with gentleness, professionalism, and very effective results."

The Iowa Clinic Website

"If you are needing surgery I definitely wouldn’t recommend him. He made a huge mistake with a surgery and lied about it!"

RateMDs

"I like my Dr but the clinic itself is the most unorganized office I've ever seen. Today was the last straw I will be changing Drs."
