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.

Made a difference
I don’t need a doctor to be my best friend. I need someone who will focus on the issues at hand. Dr. Barton did just that. He listened. He used his knowledge to search for the source of the problem. He used his skills to help fix that problem. COPD will always be with me. Dr. Barton gave me the tools needed to manage my disease. Can’t ask for more than that!

I have been using dr button as a primary care physician for the last 4 years. Only once an year visit for physical. However, I had some acute condition require immediate and referral from his office. His office staff and the nurse are unprofessional and arrogant.

Dr. Barton always makes himself accessible whenever I need his services, even at the last minute if I've developed bronchitis. If I call on a Monday, I'll get an appointment either in the late morning or afternoon. That is certainly not the case with other specialists I deal with

Very smart doctor, a scholar who keeps up with the latest advances in medicine. Beng an internist and pulmonologist at the same time also helps him to stand out of the crowd of doctors.
