Yesterday, I visited the wellness center in Fort Worth to meet with the medical staff, Doctor…read moreStacy, NP Mary, and NP Aimée, and I ended up having a 30-minute deep tissue massage with Eduardo. I can't thank Doctor Stacy enough for suggesting it. I have been there before and appreciate the staff. The atmosphere is easygoing and calm. People are helpful without hovering, friendly when needed, and present if you ask. Sometimes it is enough to walk into a place, be treated well, and not have to work to be okay for someone else. Yesterday morning, I was carrying something heavy inside. I call it psychic pain because I do not have another word for it. It is not exactly sadness, anxiety, grief, or exhaustion, though it can contain parts of each. This pain sits between thought and feeling. I can do what I need to do while it is there: work, talk to people, answer messages, make decisions. From the outside, nothing looks unusual. Inside, my mind is trying to get away from itself. I know that tendency. When something hurts too much, my mind moves. It goes into the future or returns to the past. It analyzes, rehearses conversations, and tries to understand things that may not make sense. Sometimes it starts solving problems that do not exist. Thinking becomes an escape. I am present physically, but mentally I am somewhere else. I felt the stress in my body as Eduardo began the massage. I had not arrived thinking about my shoulders, back, or muscles. As he applied pressure, my attention shifted from my thoughts to my body. Some places hurt, and I realized how tense I had become without noticing. As he continued, my attention shifted to what Eduardo was doing. I felt the pressure of his hands, the resistance in my muscles, and where they began to release. I noticed my breathing and the table beneath me. I caught myself tensing before he even reached certain areas. These small physical sensations were enough to interrupt the noise in my head. For once, my mind was not deciding where I needed to be. I was present. Eduardo did not need to know what was happening in my life. I did not have to explain why I felt the way I did. There was nothing to analyze. He worked on my body, and my body responded. I spend much of my life thinking. It is part of my work and part of who I am. I watch people, listen, and make connections. I notice what is said and what is not said, in others and in myself. Most of the time, this is useful. Sometimes I overthink, and my mind keeps turning over the same things long after there is anything left to learn. During those 30 minutes, I did not need another insight. I just wanted to feel my body. The pressure kept bringing me back. My thoughts would drift, and then another sensation would return me to my body. I wasn't telling myself to be mindful or stay in the moment. That would have turned it into another mental task. When my mind moved toward something painful, I felt Eduardo working on another tense area, and my attention returned to what was happening. I was not trying to accomplish anything. I was there long enough for my mind to slow down. The psychic pain did not disappear. I do not want to suggest that 30 minutes of massage erased what I carried. What changed was my relationship to the pain. Before, it felt overwhelming and took up too much space inside. Afterward, it was still present, but it was not everything. That difference mattered. I could feel pain and also feel Eduardo's hands on my back. I could have difficult thoughts and still notice my breathing. I could carry something unresolved and feel my muscles begin to loosen. One experience did not cancel the other. They existed together. That is what being present means for me. It is not a perfect state where difficult thoughts disappear. My mind does not work that way, and I am not sure I would trust it if it did. Being present means I do not have to follow every thought when it tries to take me somewhere. I can notice what is happening without leaving myself. At the end of the massage, I felt different. Not transformed or suddenly free from what was bothering me. I just felt more like myself. My body was less tense, and my mind was no longer racing. I could feel where I was. Thirty minutes is not a long time, which is probably why the experience stayed with me. I can waste 30 minutes without noticing, reading things I don't need, answering things that could wait, thinking about something for the hundredth time, or worrying about a future that hasn't come. Thirty minutes with Eduardo changed how I spent the rest of the day. The physical experience of being cared for affected me more than I expected. It is easy to forget how tiring it is to think, decide, help, manage, respond, and hold things together. During the massage, I was not responsible for anyone else's experience. I did not have to produce anything. Eduardo knew what he was doing, and for half an hour I could stop. I walked out of the wellness center and noticed

She sits with you and talks to you and makes you feel comfortable. It also doesn't feel like a typical doctor's office where you can't relax and you feel on edge the whole time. A lot of times doctors rush in and out and you feel like they listened to you. She's listening and she's taking it all in and she cares deeply. I would say I highly recommend her, but it's a catch-22. With writing this review I think she's wonderful, but at the same time I like being able to get my appointments with her. Also, my 11-year-old daughter sees her and just loves her. We followed her from Midlothian because neither one of us wanted to find a different doctor. She's just so great.

Katherine Pederson, DO, MS 1757 Broad Park Cir N #201,…read moreMansfield, TX 76063 Family practice physician I advise anyone using katherine Perderson to review your billing and make sure your insurance was billed for what was actually performed. I was hoping the manager of the facility in mansfield would call me back again how she said she would, so we could resolve this issue. (But after the first call i have not heard back. )Simply because "the doctor" says they performed something doesn't make it true. There was no thorough investigation done. This billing issue was dismissed way too quickly. Anyone can be "nice" and willing to listen, but there actions after is what pushed me to write this review and make others aware. 1. Appointment was made for a first visit that they said was mandatory to establish a relationship. When we arrived to apt. We specifically stated to several employees before being called to the back no physical exam was going to be done. Weight was taken, lungs were heard, blood was drawn. Doctor Katherine advised to schedule physical soon on the next visit. Before leaving the office they told me doctor katherine had changed the visit code and billed for yearly physical. Which they also looked confused as to why. No one had answers. I had to wait till manager called later that day. I told the manager We were told several times by several employees it was just a first visit to establish relationship. And $10 copay was charged, manager did refund after I first spoke with her. But the $10 is not what bothered me it was the doctors actions. All I wanted was for them to code the billing correctly or actually perform a thorough physical exam and any professional that cares would. But instead was told that the doctor may not be a good fit for us. And that she was attesting she did perform it. So they couldn't do anything about it. After talking more with manager, she said she had to talk to katherine again and would call me back the next day. I waited until about 1pm and called them since i had not recieved a call. And was told manager was in a meeting. She advised the employee assisting me to read off the notes. I didnt think that was professional. The employee said she would have manager call me back. I was expecting a solution of either billing code correction or a thorough physical exam performed, not the bare minimum. Which just really makes me sad. In person the doctor seems great it's the behind the scenes actions like billing that I don't understand how a doctor can take advantage of patients like that. If what she did was a physical she definitely did the bare minimum required to get away with coding the visit as a physical. So please review your bills, it's something that most of us don't normally do and just pay. Or we don't look because it's covered by insurance, without realizing our insurance is paying for things we didn't even have done.

My family and I have been under Dr. Barker's care since August 2018. We have seen him for numerous…read morereasons now from illness to injury to somewhat behavioral issues and he has been a tremendous help in all cases. We usually see him for OMM specific work but we have also used him for allergy and micronutrient bloodwork tests and analyzing the results for recommended lifestyle changes and care plans. I first started seeing Dr. Barker to manage severe and constant migraines that I never seemed able to get a handle on. Through multiple OMM sessions we got the migraine frequency down to a manageable level. Once I started seeing real progress I unfortunately got in a car accident that gave me some neck whiplash injury to deal with and then I became pregnant. The pregnancy presented unique problems for me that Dr. Barker was able to help me manage. I felt confident with his aide that I was doing all the bodywork necessary to provide a safe vessel for my growing baby. He even provided an OMM session for my newborn when he did an OMM session for me a few days after delivery. That session following the birth was incredibly helpful to realign my body from the physical strain of labor and delivery but also incredibly helpful in helping my baby release muscle restrictions and gain mobility and be more at ease when nursing. Unfortunately for me, my baby and I had quite a bit of difficulty with establishing a breastfeeding relationship but Dr. Barker was extremely helpful throughout. He assisted in identifying severe lip and tongue ties and recommending a specialist to help provide revision. He provided OMM bodywork prior to the revision procedure so baby would be more at ease and his body welcoming to the procedure as well as a follow-up OMM session to help baby post-procedure during the healing process. Dr. Barker has always been a dependable and wonderful provider through all of these life's adventures for us but the most impressive result I experienced was specific to my own breastfeeding challenges that didn't seem to be caused by a baby's latch or the needs of a newborn but something within me causing major pain. Dr. Barker aided me by doing chest specific OMM treatment where he identified and released serious restrictions. The relief was immediate! I could tell just by scooping baby up and carrying him around the office for a diaper change and out to the car that my chest and shoulders felt tremendously better. But the real noticeable improvement was the rest of our day and overnight. Nursing him was so much easier and so much more comfortable! My chest finally felt relaxed and free to move with the needs of caring for a baby. I cannot thank Dr. Barker enough for helping shift my newborn experiences to the positive! I am incredibly appreciative and grateful that I have Dr. Barker on my family's care team!

Before seeing Dr. Barker, I was seeking treatment from a chiropractor and an acupuncturist a couple of times a week to manage the pain. The osteopathic manipulations Dr. Barker uses are more gentle and last longer than the chiropractic and acupuncture manipulations. Dr. Barker's technique is similar to acupuncture in that I am extremely relaxed throughout the treatment. Dr. Barker collaborated with my TMJ specialist and guided her before, during and after my lip release which provided a lot of relief from headaches and neck pain. Dr. Barker is also successfully treating my imbalanced hormones with bio identical hormones to help me transition into menopause. My oldest son & my daughter are also being treated by Dr. Barker. As a baseball player and a clarinetist, my oldest son benefits from the musculoskeletal manipulation treatments and exercises recommended by Dr. Barker. Dr. Barker evaluated my daughter for enlarged tonsils; tongue & lip ties (which she has); & spinal misalignments as well as ADHD symptoms. He provided feedback to help us determine the order in which and how to best treat her symptoms. I highly recommend Dr. Barker to anyone seeking a holistic, integrative approach to overall health and wellness.
