"If you want a winning Smile, Dr. Barker is the Man. I love my Smile and Dr. Barker. I moved to SC in 2002 and had a very bad experience with a dentist. My neighbor recommended Dr. Barker and Dr. Chacknes. I saw Dr Barker and loved him from my first visit. He is wonderful along with all the girls in his office.
He cares about you and it shows. I will never see another dentist as long as Dr. Barker is in practice. Thanks Dr. B!"

Nancy Platt
"Dr.'s Barker and Chacknes have been our family dentists for years and they have always taken the best care of us. Whether a routine 6 months check up or an unexpected emergency visit, they have shown not only the expertise needed for the best treatment but have done it in a manner that puts us at ease. Their professional and the office staff are always friendly and treat us more as family than patients. They provide quality and cutting edge dentistry with an old fashioned congeniality that is rare."

Jack and Charlotte Smith
"Charlotte and I have been Dr. Barker’s patients since 1984. We feel like family when we enter his office. Some of his employees have been with him since our first visit, 22 years ago. That says a lot about a person when they keep loyal patients and employees for such a long time.
Dr. Barker has always kept up with the very latest in dental technology and training. That reassures us that we are getting the very best care available in the Rock Hill area.
Charlotte has a sensitive mouth, but she is never nervous about her dental visits because she knows Dr. Barker and his staff will always treat her in a kind and gentle way. Over the years we have referred many of our family and friends to Dr. Barker’s office, and we do this with confidence that they will be treated with kindness and given the very best care for a fair and reasonable fee."

"My family moved to Rock Hill in 1975. At church, we met the wonderful family of Glenn Barker. As soon as he went into private practice, I knew I wanted him to be our family dentist. There are reasons why I have stayed a patient of Glenn's. (Since we were friends first, I call him Glenn, but know he is Dr. Barker!)
First, I trust him. Whenever I have needed dental care, he has advised me with options. Once, I was making a poor decision about my dental care, he called me at home to explain why my choice had undesirable consequences. I then followed his advice. Every time I have had "emergencies", he (or Dr. Anna Chacknes) has helped me through the experience. He was wonderful with both of my children who needed braces.
Second, he keeps current about procedures. I am an avid reader and no sooner than I read about a procedure, I go to the dentist for a routine check-up and discover that Dr. Barker and Dr.Chacknes have already implemented it! When I read about a new mouth wash that helps to kill sore throat viruses, they already had it available for purchase. That saved me "sick days" from the job. (I didn't miss an unscheduled day in 32 years!)
Third, he makes excellent hiring decisions. The staff at his office is caring and friendly. Each seems truly interested in each patient and will help as much as possible. I really like his idea of having the assistant "pat" my arm to distract me when he gives an injection. The on-the-job training of these employees must make clear the philosophy of patient care as of primary importance.
These are a few reasons I have been a patient of Dr. Barker's for more than thirty years. I recommend him every chance I get."

“For almost 25 years I have been a patient of Dr. Glenn Barker. For me it has been more than a dental appointment…it’s more like a visit with friends. We’ve shared our experiences raising children and prayed for each other. The entire staff makes me actually look forward to going to the dentist.”

“My wife and I and our two children have been going to Dr. Barker since we moved to Rock Hill in 1987. All of us, and especially the children, have smiles that we are proud to flash for anyone! Dr. Barker genuinely cares for his patients and their families and he and his staff have always gone the extra step to insure that each and every visit is painless in every way. I would give my heart-felt recommendation of Dr. Barker to anyone looking for a dentist in the York County area.”
