Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

The Best
Dr. Northrop has been our PC for many years. His kindness and consideration have gotten us through some very difficult time, including my husband's bout with lung cancer and problems related to unavailable procedures during the time of COVID.My OCD makes me a very difficult patient and he is the only medical person with whom I feel comfortable enough to step outside my comfort level.He had made himself very available to us and we are eternally grateful.

The Physical was okay even though it seemed like he was rushing. The referral for a Psychiatrist was the big issue. It had taken over a month and a half. I’ve called both primary physician and psychiatrist office each week but nothing has been worked out. How’re people who have psych issues suppose to deal with the tardiness? It’s been over a month and a half and now vrocoming am emergency and you and your office have been useless. I recommend using a different primary care Physician if you have a mental illness.

Dr. Northrop is a great primary care physician , he always takes his time to listen to you and truly cares about his pts. I had a brain bleed in 2010 and was put in the CCC at the hospital I work at. Dr. Northrop was there for hours on the phone getting me a bed in a Boston hospital ! I honestly wouldn’t be alive if it wasn’t for him !
