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.

Best Doctor Ever!
Dr. Barfield has been treating me for over 6 years now. I began seeing her at her previous office near the hospital in Cartersville, and followed her practice to Harbin when she moved because I couldn't imagine seeing someone else. Dr. Barfield is the most compassionate doctor that I have ever worked with. She listens carefully, gives concrete and useful medical advice, and will go above and beyond to ensure that her patient feels that they are truly being taken care of, even if it means working you in at the last minute or giving you a phone call herself after her office's business hours. This year has been extremely tough for me medically, and Dr. Barfield has gone above and beyond to help me find answers and solutions for my problems. Some doctors can make you feel judged in regards to mental health issues, but Dr. Barfield has always made me feel seen and understood, never embarrassed or shamed. I would recommend her to all of my friends and family, even strangers!

She has been our family doctor for many years.. she is thorough, knowledgeable and very compassionate. It’s hard to find doctors like her anymore. We have recently moved to the Chattanooga area but we are not changing doctors. We will travel to see her. She is a fabulous doctor and a special person.

Both my husband and I cannot say enough good things about Doctor Mary Katherine Barfield. She is proficient and straight forward, yet patient, warm and thoughtful. Her listening skills are absolutely wonderful .. she hears you and responds to your needs. Her years of experience are reflected in her ability to successfully identify a problem and provide a solution. Her conscientious care is well worth the occasional longer wait time. Thank you Dr. Barfield!

Dr. Barfield is the best doctor I have. She takes as much time as needed. She is well read and knows the most current research. She is compassionate and caring. I asked her to take my 94 year old mother on as a new patient because I didn’t think my mom’s doctor was doing enough for her or making the best decisions. My mother adores her and listens to everything Dr. Barfield tells her. She trusts her implicitly and so do I.

Several years ago my wife and I had a recommendation to request Dr. Barfield be our Personal Care Physician. So very happy to have found her! As with all of our meetings with Dr. Barfield, this last one was everything that a doctor/patient visit should be. It's an understatement to say that she listens. And, that she cares.
