Starting the long journey back from Kingston Ontario Canada I’ve been up here for a few days helping a great group of surgeons start up their robotic bariatric surgery program. It’s been fun comparing all the differences and similarities between healthcare in Canada and in the United States. Everybody stay safe and warm this weekend.

Meet Dr. Barnes' Bariatric Team 💙

Taylor (right) has been with Highland Clinic for 9 years and has had the privilege of working alongside Dr. Barnes as his Medical Assistant for nearly 8 years. "During that time, I've witnessed countless life-changing journeys that continue to inspire me every day. Being part of both his bariatric practice and Highland Clinic has shown me the power of compassionate, team-based care. It is more than a workplace; it's family, and we're always happy to welcome new patients as they begin their journey with us."

Ashlee (left) has spent 5 years at Highland Clinic and the last 2 years with Dr. Barnes in his clinic as a receptionist. "I'm passionate about creating a positive, welcoming experience and being a source of encouragement for patients as they take this incredible step toward better health."

Considering bariatric surgery? Let Ashlee and Taylor walk you through the process with the support and care you deserve. 💙
