Barton Associates Reviews 

Recruter Colin Russell is kind , reliable , effective , straightforward
Matt Lovely from credentialing was extremely helpful , nice , very professional.
A big thank you to both of them

Did just a short term gig, all of the barton peoples were nice to work with and made sure I had support and information prior to showing up and after.

My rep is consistent in providing and presenting locum opportunities and tailors them to my particular skill set and personality

Staff was very diligent in putting all the necessary contracts and travel arrangements in place.

I had a great experience working with Barton Associates for my recent locum tenens assignment. The team was professional, responsive, and made the entire process smooth from start to finish. Communication has been excellent, and they have provided strong support throughout the assignment.
I would definitely work with Barton Associates again and highly recommend them to other physicians looking for locum opportunities.

I’m a PA who started my Locums career with Barton. Domenic worked closely with me to find the right fit and get my journey started. He is very professional and very helpful, is proactive and wants to put you in a position for success. Working with him has been a great and supportive experience. I can say the same for the licensing and credentialing departments as well.

My experience with Barton & Associates was extremely disappointing. What initially appeared to be a professional and supportive organization ultimately became a stressful and frustrating experience.

Communication was inconsistent and, at times, unclear. Expectations and obligations were not explained in a transparent manner, which led to confusion and unnecessary complications later on. Instead of working collaboratively to resolve issues, the process felt rigid and transactional.

What concerned me most was the lack of flexibility and willingness to address the situation fairly once problems arose. Rather than focusing on a reasonable resolution, the approach felt overly aggressive and impersonal. For a company that works with healthcare professionals, I expected a higher level of professionalism and respect in how situations are handled.

Overall, the experience left me feeling that the company prioritizes its own interests over maintaining fair and supportive relationships with the professionals it works with.

Based on my experience, I would strongly encourage anyone considering working with Barton & Associates to review their agreements carefully and ensure they fully understand all terms and expectations before committing.

Many errors in receiving my money. I am actually at the point now where I’ve completed my contract and they’re still outstanding monies that are owed to me. They don’t seem to communicate or they’re just unwilling to pay me even though they’ve been paid by the client.

This company hired to work a contract in Florida. I show up to work at the clinic on the Monday and the clinic said they never agreed to contract me for that day. The Barton recruiter never called and told me that (apparently the clinic communicated with Barton over the weekend.) The recruiter said they didn't check their email . I drove over an hour to work and asked for my milage and time to be re-imbursed and they said they would but never did!
I also had to beg and throw a fit for them to pay me for a whole weeks worth of work I did prior to the scheduling error. Barton claimed the didn't have my information to pay me (ie- direct deposit-bank account.) FYI-There are other locums agencies 100% better. Recruiters can work the weekends that's part of the job that shouldn't be an excuse.

Excellent company to work for. They hire top notch recruiting consultants who go above and beyond to find the right travel/temp contracts, maintain open communication, and work to make the whole process easy and enjoyable. My consultant was Hannah she is great.

Hannah is great to work with; understands my needs.

I am grateful to Bartons for an opportunity to work with them. On boarding was easy and my first assignment is going smooth for over 5 months now. My coordinator is awesome and stays on top of my requests. The company is well organized and makes me feel comfortable.

Nick DeCurtis is very helpful, reliable and takes my interests, safety, job satisfaction and job locations very seriously. He is very transparent and a great sounding board for issues or situations as well as just a very empathetic and genuine person.

It's a great outfit to work for, great assignments, pay and benefits.

They owe me 2 weeks of Salary, they continue to be evasive
I will keep you posted
don't be fooled by 5 star reviews
Barton associates continue "ghosting" me after breaching our contract
update:2/3/2026
No payment as of today, no explanation either
I have filed a complaint with NALTO ethics committee as well as MA Attorney Generals office
next step is Small Claims Lawsuit
I will keep you posted....

Excellent. Previous starting I was notify about my roll and responsibilities, so I was clear about measurable expectations and goals that provide direction and a sense of accomplishment while I gave my contribution to meet company's goals.
I was in permanent contact and support with a company representative, while in my assignment, so I have a chance to evaluate services I provided. I recommend others professionals to engage working with this company, they offer a family environment that made you to feel like in home, "far from Home"

MY RECRUITER SUSAN IS AMAZING! SHE ALWAYS MAKES SURE THAT I AM COMFORTABLE AND IF THERE ARE ANY PROBLEMS SHE JUMPS IN TO FIX THEM IMMEDIATLY. EVERYONE HAS BEEN GREAT WITH HELPING ME TO GET MY LICENSE IN MULTIPLE STATES AS WELL AS IT IS NOT EASY IN SOME STATES.

Professional representatives. Communicate well. Take care of all the details. Take care of the providers and value the relationships with their clients.

My experience with Barton Associates has been excellent. I have the privilege of working with Ms. Daniela B., one of the best recruiters I’ve ever met. The Barton Associates team checks in regularly to make sure I am satisfied with my assignments and treated well. Even after my contracts ended, Ms. Daniela continued to reach out every few months and that level of care is the reason I chose to return to Barton Associates.
