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.

My daughter was admitted with liver failure and systemic blood infection. He saved my daughter's life. He knew that Hunterdon was not equipped to treat her condition, so he quickly decided to transport her to University Hospital in Newark. She was treated there and was hospitalized for 23 days and had 2 blood transfusions. Her infection was so bad that when she was discharged, she had a pic line in her arm for six weeks and had to inject antibiotics three times a day. If it hadn't been for him and his decisions, my very sick daughter would not be alive today. He actually told us that he wasn't sure that she would make it to University Hospital. Thank you Dr. Barsoom

Horrible experience in ER with him -misdiagnosed and then blurted out to family " I THINK HE HAS LUNG CANCER" (he does not). Could not get an IV in and "dug around" with patient screaming until family stopped him.

Had an unexpected trip to ER while in NJ on trip from Atlanta. Could not have had a better experience. Hunterdon staff & Dr Barsoom were the best. Thanks to all.
