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.

He is one of the best doctors I've ever met. He genuinely listened to me and took my worries into account. I couldn't recommend this man enough, especially to women suffering from autonomic disorders

Dr review
I have been seeing Dr. Barrington for 16 years. He did my cardiac ablation when I was 47 years old. I have continued seeing him for follow up and necessary testing and meds annually. I would give him 10 stars on all measures if I could. There isn't another doctor that I have ever met anywhere near this level of care, concern, expertise, procedure etc..... He calms my fears and concerns EVERY single time. Thank you Dr. Barrington!!
