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.

Highly recommend.
She is an outstanding doctor. Very caring of her patients. Takes time to explain treatment and results.

If I have to have cancer, glad she’s my oncologis!
Everyone in the office is kind and helpful. Wait times are no problem. And Dr. Barrington makes you feel so at ease in such a stressful and scary time.

Unequivocal Endorsement of Dr Barrington
We reviewed my latest numbers on bloodwork with pros and cons which overall were acceptable. For 13 years she has been reviewing my case (CLL) with me and I have always been comfortablewith her decisions from diagnosis, through Chemotherapy and follow through. She is a 5 star Dr. and personality and has my whole hearted recommendation.

Texas Oncology and Dr. Barrington
I’ve been a cancer patient for 2 plus years and blessed to have been referred to Dr. Barrington. She is always thorough and provides all important information in terms I can understand. She and the entire staff are very supportive and eager to help. They are family in my mind.

She All But Walks on Water!
I always look forward to our visits, because of her sincere warmth and honest caring about how I am doing - and how to continue staying well. Our conversations are at a high technical level because she appreciates that I am a highly educated scientist - there is no dumbing down on the jargon. At the same time, our conversations wander into personal aspects of our lives - and yes, I realize that she is probing for signs of healthy life-style and balanced attitude. Bottom line: I adore her and would love to have her over for dinner sometime!

Exceptionally brilliant!
Dr. Barrington is the ultimate doctor. The perfect balance between cutting edge technical intelligence with an innate sense of compassion that instantly puts a person at ease and fills them with a type of trust I have never felt from a doctor so quickly before. When uncomfortable topics need to be addressed she speaks plainly and articulately drawing clear pictures which is perhaps the greatest gift humankind can give one another, especially in her field of specialty. I am honored and humbled to call her my doctor.

I was heard…
There aren’t enough words to show my appreciation for the way this woman made me feel heard and seen. After the experiences I had in 2020 when I was diagnosed with breast cancer, I was left feeling like I was a statistic not an individual. Dr. Barrington single-handedly restored my faith and trust in healthcare professionals. Grateful or appreciative doesn't properly convey what I feel. I am awaiting my date for my double mastectomy and DIEP reconstruction and will be able to put behind me some of the most traumatic experiences concerning doctors one could have. I truly believe had I not had the experience I did with her, I wouldn’t have had the courage to finish my breast cancer story. I believe my mistrust of doctors would have continued and I’m not sure what my future would be like. Dr. Barrington changed the trajectory of my life and I will be forever thankful. I’m not a religious person but greater forces were at play when I was fortunate enough to enter her office.

All my friends that see her recommended her.
My last visit was disappointing. She reported things being resolved, hot flashes and night sweats, which we did not discuss and are not resolved. She seemed distant and unconcerned that I continue to have all the side effects of the harmon therapy plus new issues. I continue to lose weight and am making every effort to follow the diet recommended by the dietician.

Highly recommend
Dr Barrington took time to explain my situation to me and my husband. She explained what was going on in my body and my best path for recovery. She answered our questions. I was able to ask questions through the Navigating Care app on my phone. All my questions were answered within 24 hours. I would highly recommend her to any person going through breast cancer.
