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.

Dr. Barrett is the very best!
TOA is ABSOLUTELY the best Orthopedic source in Middle Tennessee. My only concern is the wait time. My appointment was scheduled for 1:20 PM, I was right on time and had checked-in online. Wait time was a long, long time. I left TOA @ 3:03 PM. Yes, there were other patients there, but everyone was not seeing Dr. Barrett. No one expressed why the wait time was so long or offered apologies.

This was my 1 year appointment after the left total knee replacement and it is 7 months since the right knee replacement was done. I have no more pain and excited about living an active life. Dr Barrett & his staff are the best & I would recommend to everyone.

Total Left Knee Replacement
Dr. Barrett explained everything well. I’m two days post-op Total Left Knee Replacement and had my first P.T. today. I’m moving well and having minimal pain at this time. The TOA office of Dr. Matthew Barrett and the TOA Physical Therapy Office have been very kind and professional. I love the detailed communication through texting and emailing. At this stage of my recovery I believe my experience has been very satisfactory. I expect great results from this surgery and can’t wait to be able to be more active again without severe knee pain.
