Dr Barber is great. Phone office staff however are rude, unprofessional, and unhelpful. Will not be returning.

Do not take Medicaid
Love the doctors & staff here.
They have helped me in many ways

The worst experience ever! I would never go here again going to Asheville!! Some of the most rudest staff and Doctors!
Quick and competent

Love the doctors and staff!!
Very infornative all questions answered.
RUDE! Flat out rude and would NOT recommend to anyone in need of an Endo dr.
Professional, courteous, and on time.
Very friendly and efficient
Caring and thoughtful practice.
Excellent care by doctors, nurses and office staff.
Easy, painless bloodwork
Everyone is always nice, helpful and truly listens.
The best you can get.
Beware of this practice!!!! They could care less about the patient!! They are only interested in who you have for insurance, collecting your co-pay & getting you to come back over & over again with no progress or solutions in treatment.
Michelle Woods has no sympathy for her patients. She deals with a lot of patients who have diabetes. Part of being diabetic is having to count the carbs in food, watch blood glucose numbers closely, and watch your diet. When one of her …
Very through. Excellent physician.
I’m a new patient, my first visit was in December. It’s now the last couple days in April and I’ve still not seen the doctor only the PA.
Dr Donepudi is a wonderful, caring doctor who has taken excellent care of my father with diabetes and myself having Hashimotos disease.
One of the few practices where when you have an appt, you are taken in at your appt time. Havent had to wait one time over the last 3-4 years. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. Dr Donepudi is excellent and I highly recommend him. He fixed me up!
Dr. Donepudi is an amazing doctor. I am glad to have him oversee my care with hypothyroidism. Having been diagnosed at only 31 years old, I was a bit overwhelmed with the thought of a lifetime of taking medication. He has always been …
this office is the worst place I ever been to they check you in. 10 min later you go back. The doc. will sit down for only 2 min. and see if you have any questions. if no questions, they will get up and leave and your appointment is done for the 3 months.
Was turned off of this place immediately upon receiving the new patient paperwork in the mail. There are PAGES of demands of the patient, up to and including that the patient is not permitted to wear any scented colognes, deodorants, etc.!! …
There is a reason the reviews are so low. The staff here has the absolute worst customer service of any medical practice. I won’t speak to the credibility of the doctors, but the receptionist and nurses make every patient feel like an absolute burden.
I have been going here for about a year now and today was my LAST DAY. At first, everything was okay and I saw Dr. Barber. I liked him, however I didn’t feel like he was doing enough to help my condition (hypothyroidism). All he was …
Michelle Woods asks the most pertinent and informed questions regarding my endocrinology needs. It is my good fortune to have her expertise in the treatment of my condition. She is a worthy addition to the staff of Piedmont Endocrinology. …
This is a very good physician office
Great friendly staff that makes going to the doctor enjoyable
Always gives me piece of mind!
I started going to Piedmont Endocrinology a few months ago. I have to say that this is the most caring, efficient, their on top of all the newest news about diabetes,thyroid cancer and many other things that can affect your health. I had …
The Dr. Barber is a great Dr. The staff at Piedmont Endocrinology are professionals and friendly.
Dr. Donepudi really tries hard to help you with your health…
My experience with this practice has been terrible. Dr orzco does not explain things to you and gets frustrated whenever you ask questions. charged me a 25$ no show fee for an appointment i had rescheduled. I’ve been going there over a …
WONDERFUL KIND PEOPLE. THE DOCTORS ARE EXCELLENT!
I’ve been involved with this practice for 3 years. They do appear to use the “15 minute patient” rule but anytime I’ve had any issues or needed to speak to my doctor longer he has been patient and understandable. He’s also extremely …
WORST UNCARING DOCTORS AND UNCARING STAFF – Yes, I have missed some appointments but I have had a LOT going on – was in the hospital for a week with two different surgeries performed. I have also been a few minutes late for an appointment …
Been going here for a couple of years to try to get diabetes in better control . I haven’t got any better and I don’t feel they listen to ME and MY symptoms instead they go back to what data says. No real helpfull suggestions offered to me …
Worst & Rudest & most unfeeling staff and I don’t know if Dr. Barber was even aware I was there crying my eyes out. I was 11 minutes late and receptionist says that it’s almost 3:00. No, it wasn’t. Hwy 127 is very busy. I am new to the …
Waste of time to come here, on the off chance you even get to speak to your endo, it will be short and uninformative, they make assumptions and treat you as though you’re lying if they have already made their assumptions. There is no …
great customer services and staff very friendly.
Rudest office staff ever, office manager Kim is SO condescending on the phone and unprofessional, called me a liar. There is a reason they’re reviews are SO low. Wouldn’t let me reschedule and appointment that I missed when my grandmother …
$80 copay for the PA to google- GOOGLE!- PCOS symptoms in my face! Suggest a completely unfounded, untested home remedy for problematic symptom. I was not told that my 2:40 appointment would be a fasting appointment so they could take blood …
VERY FRIENDLY AND SUFFICIENT. PLEASANT ATMOSPHERE ALWAYS.
The staff went above and beyond to assist me at my visit.
Office staff is very very rude. Michelle Woods and Ben Bullock were the best Dr’s there, if you seen anyone else, then you are screwed. I would never go there again, new referral on the way. I should even give them one star
Excellent service and very professional. I appreciate everyone there!
Shouldn’t even give them ONE star, Michelle is one of the rudest, most hateful people in this office. She should be embarrassed with the lack of respect she had for my mother. THEY NEED TO CLEAN HOUSE AT THIS OFFICE. I’m glad my mom will …
Showed up for our appointment that was scheduled 6 weeks prior, due to an accident on their road a few blocks away we walked in 4 minutes late. We were relieved to see a sign that stated “if you are more then 10 minutes late your …
I love the doctor the nurse not so much I would give her 2 stars
Dr. Donepudi has been very helpful in treating my condition. He has taken the necessary time to explain the issues that I face. The office staff have been courteous and efficient.
Very courteous and friendly employees highly recommend
There IS definitely a reason why the scores are so low. People, this office is difficult to get answers from and very rude office staff. If they return your call, you have to continue to check on status of your requests in days forthcoming. …
The staff is friendly, professional, and thorough. I am pleased with the service I recieved.
Best Dr and nurses and other staff, I have ever had the pleasure of being a patient to!
Everything excellent. Just waited a little too long.
Waste of time going here. Only caregiver that actually listens is Ben Bullard. I actually wonder if the patients they cannot help are treated badly in the hope they will go away. Certainly not up to date on current thought and treatments, …
I wish we could go without masks again. With me being hard of hearing it really makes it hard to hear staff and Dr. Otherwise, hopefully we the answer. We’ll know the next time I come in whether to celebrate or hope something pans out.
My first visit…no complaints everything went smoothly.
Reading these postings first was not the best idea, in my opinion they were absolutely wrong. I found each staffperson encountered to be extremely nice and professional. I’m glad I got scheduled with them. Dr. Bullard was very nice.
Very professional and efficient. In and out in no time but still thorough.
Just returned from my first visit. I have read the negative reviews and had some concerns. The staff and Ben Bullard were very professional. I was given great care and advice.
Dr. Barber is a wonderful, caring, and thorough doctor. He ran many test, did an ultrasound of my thyroid, and gives great advice. He is kind and listens to you. I have had bad experiences with endocrinologist in the past. Happy to finally have a doctor who is kind and helpful.
I was seen promptly upon arriving. Staff were courteous and friendly.
On time, no wait, quick easy process…lady that took blood was very nice…in and out 5 min..
Staff were very efficient. My appointment was on time.
One has to believe the recent positive posts are plants. Many complaints about office staff being rude, they weren’t the friendliest bunch, but I would not call them rude. I found Dr Doneprudi to be rude, condescending, and unwilling to …
Staff was polite and helpful. Dr was great also
Michelle Woods works hard to get to the root of your problem. Brittany is very professional and makes you fill important and of course Tyler can always get my vein, he listens to you and he is so precious.
The office staff are very polite and Dr. Barber was very informative. He took his time explaining my case.
The staff here is wonderful. They take good care of you.
I like everyone was so kind and friendly, the nurse and pa were fantastic
Great service and complete attention to my needs. Thorough explanation of causes of problems. Dr Bullard is great!
I’m done. It’s a shame I really liked Dr. Barber. His office staff however has the personality and compassion of a brick wall.
Very pleasant experience. I was a little nervous in the beginning but was soon put at ease.
Awesome providers . Always takes the time to explain and remind me of my role as patient !
Met with the Dr. today for annual review. I was very pleased.
Always a good experience when I go see piedmont endocrinology they are great
Wonderful staff and Dr. Harrill was super. I have the upmost confidence that he will be able to help me. Thank you so so much.
I have been going there for a while the doctors and the staff are very nice and polite I would recommend them to anyone they are good at their work and it’s a loving family atmosphere and it shows. Thank you guys for all you do.
I just had my six months checkup with Ben at Piedmont Endocrinology in Hickory. He was outstanding. He showed me he cared about my health, and was a great listener. Also, the staff that drew my blood sample were skilled and efficient. Thanks to everyone for treating me so well.
Dr Barber is an excellent dr and the office staff are so warm and friendly.
I’ve always had terrible experiences with endocrinologists but Dr. Bullard was amazing. He made me feel like I’m in control and he’s not trying to talk down to me. Will definitely be going back to see him. …
I have been going here for about a year. I hate it here! I finally sad enough is enough! I got tired of being talked down to by Dr Woods. I have lived with type 2 for over 20 years but to be yelled at and belittled again and again I …
Although you are normally never ready for Dr appointments…The completeness and people always make it as pleasurable as possible!
The check-in was easy and receptionist very pleasant . Lab tech was very knowledgeable and took my blood quickly and efficiently.
I have been going here for a handful of years now, always a pleasant experience and the staff is always knowledgeable and professional
The office staff, phlebotomists, nurses and physicians are wonderful. They are super friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable. It is always a pleasant experience when I go for my visits.
I just enjoy going to mr Bullard he is very nice and u can tell he really cares . The staff is also wonderful .
Thanks so much
This practice gets every thumbs up possible. Dr. Barber is thorough, kind, and always on time. His office staff is excellent and the way the office runs is tight and efficient.
Everyone is professional and cordial from the front office, lab, nurses/doctor s assistant to checkout.
Dr. D. Very attentive, takes time to answer questions & takes the time to explain things without hesitation..or look agitated that I asked. Awesome.
Dr Donepudi is knowledgable, precise, excellent, personable and explains what you need to know in layman’s terms. His instructions are clear. I left feeling hear, understood and grounded in what I need to do next.
Dr. Donepudi is a kind and skilled physician. His practice is organized, efficient and friendly. I never feel rushed. A well run practice.
Excellent staff and the doctor!! They did not have an appointment till January but they reviewed my records and made exception. Staff was very kind and helpful and dr Barbar explained my issue to me in a way no one ever has done before!!
Everyone at this office has been very efficient and polite. Dr. Barber is a thorough and caring dr. Dr. Barber not only tells you what is wrong but how he plans to correct it and how that actually works. Very impressed!
Dr Donepudi impressed me more than any medical professional has in years. He is very knowledgeable and professional. He obviously cares about his patients. He is thorough and takes time, allowing all questions to be answered. There are …
I have been a patient of Dr Barber for 20+ years. He has always been caring, and thoroughly explains my blood test reports. His staff are all wonderful.
