My condolences to the family. A wonderful staff at the Department of Family Medicine.

I’m gonna miss him dearly. He was truly the best provider anyone could ask for. B

Barry and I had been friends since our university years, got together at least once a year, and spoke regularly on the phone. He was a steadfast friend with an understated sense of humor, and was a lot of fun to spend time with. I attended his wedding in Charleston and was delighted to meet Sarah. And it was special to have her mother conduct the wedding ceremony. At this moment of loss and grief, I take comfort in knowing that Barry and Sarah had a great life together, which included many notable and exhilarating international trips, to Mexico, Germany, Austria, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Scandinavia, and beyond. The world was their oyster many times over. They were bicycle-riding buddies extraordinaire.
Barry was an accomplished physician and medical educator, who was keenly devoted to his patients. And Barry was a very caring and involved father to Mike and Amy, going the extra yard for their benefit whenever he needed to.
Barry maintained the highest ethical standards and a strong sense of moral duty, as exemplified by his becoming a Conscientious Objector during the Vietnam War. It was an arduous process to be granted the CO status, but Barry persevered and succeeded, and then performed his duties admirably.
At the same time, Barry entertained me frequently by playing his 12 string guitar, specializing in such America hits as A Horse With No Name, and Ventura Highway. I can still hear him play those tunes, and smile.
Barry was the best! I will miss him deeply.

Querido Barry: Llevaré para siempre en la memoria el recuerdo de tu buen humor, tu amabilidad, generosidad y lo mucho que te gustaba aprender y gozar con los refranes en español. Tu vida se terminó demasiado pronto, pero las buenas obras que hiciste permanecen. GRACIAS por todo y espero estés disfrutando en el cielo montando en la bicicleta y jugando con Lana! Un abrazo. Te extraño.

My condolences to the family. Dr. Hainer has been my doctor since I can remember. He delivered 3 of my 6 kids. Are you going to have anymore kids Christina (after 1), no sir Dr. Hainer. One is enough. This news hurt me this morning.
SIP Dr. Hainer, your work here is done, well done.

Dear Amy, I am so very sorry to read of your dad's passing, He was a wonderful father and Physician , remembering those days spent with you back in your middle school days and doing homework , your dad was a special man, RIP Dr. Hainer . Dolly Adams , Mt Pleasant, SC

He was my doctor since I came out the wound. I will always remember he is the Best doctor anyone could have. This saddens me. It will NEVER be another doctor like him.

He was our family doctor Since out the wound...I'm going to miss Dr Hainer. I will always talk about how he is the BEST doctor anyone could have. I will miss going to him with every complaint and he would say "nothing is wrong with you". RIP

Dr. Hainer was my daughter's doctor for many years at MUSC. She is developmentally disabled yet he was patient, kind, thorough and sweet with her throughout her visits. He exemplified the best in medical care and we were so fortunate to have him as her physician. Nancy and Charles Banov

Barry Hainer was the first physician I met when I interviewed at the Department of Family Medicine residency program in 1981. I was so impressed with his intellect and grasp of medicine and was assured that family doctors could be as smart as anyone. I remember being sad when he left to become residency director at ECU in 1984 and thrilled when he confidentially told me at a North American Primary Care Research Group meeting a few years later that he was returning to Charleston. During the 30+ years that we worked together I continued to be impressed by Barry's keen diagnostic skill, professionalism, and warmth. His devotion to his Department and colleagues was evident when he stood up and accepted Dean Pisano's request to be the interim Department Chair. I will miss Barry Hainer, he was one of my two mentors at MUSC.

Dr hainer was my dr for many years .i will truly miss him.RIP
