Great Doctor
by itsjusmeli at Citysearch
Dr. Baruiz is an excellent doctor. She is always very thorough and spends a lot of time talking with her patients. Most doctors try to rush you out the door the minute they're done with the exam. She stays to answer questions, offer advice, etc. Highly recommend.
- Pros: Will spend a lot of time with you. Also very thorough.
- Cons: None.

Great Physician
by BMP at Citysearch
First I would like to make a comment on the previous review. Someone had said that he was seen for his pre hire physical. Well, I happen to know that the only physicals Dr. Baruiz does are for the Fire Department. When I went in for my fire department physical it was very thorough, and very professional. I had no problem passing my physical and getting the job. Sometimes the truth hurts and the best ones are picked for the job. The staff was great. The doctor was great. I have nothing bad to say about this office and would recommend her to anyone!
- Pros: Great Doctor, Great Staff, everything Great
- Cons: Can't think of any

Excellent Treatment! Great Staff! Passionate Doctor!
by raleighhorse1957 at Citysearch
I have been a patient with Dr. Baruiz for over 10 years. The first thing I would like to comment on is the "horrible staff comments", the staff member that they are referring to is NO LONGER with the practice and has not been for over a year. The two girls that are there now are fabulous, one of them has been there for over 4 years and the other about a year and a half. When I call they greet me by name and can always satisfy my needs. If I need an appointment I get it that day, I may have to wait a bit, which is not abnormal for this office but it is definitely worth it for the treatment you receive. They are willing to work through their lunches and into the evening to take care of their patients, you don't find that often! The Dr. is fabulous, like I mentioned before and someone else below, you may have to wait a bit, but that time she is giving to that other patient, you will receive the same quality of time, this is just one reason why you will love her as your Doctor. I have referred many many people to Dr. Baruiz's office and they all feel the same way I do. Enjoy!
- Pros: Doctor, Staff, Quality of Treatment
- Cons: Wait time

Caring people!
by ncangel at Citysearch
I would recommend Dr. Baruiz to anyone who is tired of being with large practices & even longer waits!! Last spring, I suffered a very severe, sudden & unique illness that landed me in the hospital (a coma for a few days). After my parents frantically called doctors (even UNC & Duke, who have MONTHS wait for an intial appintment!!), my bf''s mom told us about Dr. Baruiz. She & her son love her as well & have been with her for years! The staff was very caring & spoke to my parents when I was unable. Dr, Baruiz herself even called a few times to check on me! Where do you find that now, especially in our area?? I got my flu shot last fall there & again, everyone was great! Phone calls are returned promptly, questions answered & yes, there is a wait, but that is going to be present wherever you go!! They also are good about people's money /insurance situations & definitely will help you on an individual basis! I could never thank Dr. Baruiz, Mandi & the other staff members for FINALLY finding true compassion!!!
- Pros: level of personal care,attentiveness(both in person & by phone), affordablitiy
- Cons: perhaps her knowledge of my specific lifelong illness (diabetes), bit hard to understand (language)

Most Attentive Physician ever
by cbassman at Citysearch
I've been a patient of Doctor Baruiz for more than 10 years. Before I speak about her, I'd like to respond to the criticism of the office staff that was previously given. There have been a number of assistants in this office through the years and I've never experienced anything but top notch professionalism. This is a small office with a LOT of loyal patients who simply would not have remained loyal if they were treated poorly. More importantly, when Dr. Baruiz is attending you, she treats you like you are the most important person on the planet. She is attentive, compassionate and thorough beyond compare. I learned many years ago that, because she takes so much time with each patient, you can expect to wait. Let me re-iterate, you will have to wait in the office to see her. She is generally always running behind schedule.... because she is giving someone the attention they need and deserve and refuses to rush them out the door like a cookie-cutter HMO (with which I have experience). I would and do recommend Dr. Baruiz and her staff to everyone. I have no plans to ever go anywhere else.
- Pros: attentiveness, thoroughness, knowledge, compassion
- Cons: you're going to wait in the lobby so plan on it.... who cares?
