Dr. Johnnie Barto
Specialty:
Pediatric
City / Location: Johnstown, PA
He was well respected in his community — a family pediatrician, an elected member of the school board, a regular attendee at church.
He abused many patients. He abused generations (moms and then their children).
Most of the assaults happened after Barto got his medical license back in 2000. It had been suspended after he was accused the first time of sexually abusing three children in 1998. His license was restored in 2000 by the Pennsylvania Board of Medicine.
