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. Barronian is a very skilled and caring surgeon, with excellent bedside manner. My rotator cuff surgery went perfectly and healed without any problems or complaints. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing an evaluation or procedure.

I recently had Dr. Barronian repair my torn rotator cuff. This was the fourth surgery on the same shoulder, the last being 20 years ago. After that procedure I had a frozen shoulder that required a manipulation to free it. Because of my past history, Dr. Barronian took extra care to not only repair the tear but to also clean the joint to help in the rehab. Because of that my recover period was greatly reduced and the whole procedure was much less painful and my recovery exceeded my expectations. I found Dr. Barronian a very personable doctor whole truly seemed to care about my wellbeing and complete recovery. If I ever require any type of orthopedic procedure in the future, Dr. Barronian will be my first choice.

Saw Dr Barronian within 5 min of scheduled appointment time. He diagnosed problem, offered solution alternatives. No pressure to "cut" right away. St. B is very personable and professional... made me feel totally comfortable.

Dr Barronian is a magnificent surgeon. My results fulfilled my highest hopes. He cannot do the recovery part for you, so don’t waste his time and expertise if you’re not willing to do your part in your recovery. He does not cater to passive patients - you must be involved in your recovery.

Dr. Barronian recently performed arthroscopic surgery on my knee, due to a posterior and mid torn meniscus. He was very thorough and forth right in answering all my concerns before and after the surgery. I felt very comfortable and at ease, and highly recommend him .

I broke my ankle in two places and dislocated it. Dr. Barronian did an awesome job putting it back together! He even made sure the tattoo around my ankle went back together right! It has been 8 months and I have full use of my ankle without a single problem! And you can barely see the scar! I never felt like I was being rushed through my followup appointments and all the staff, from the ladies up front to the nurses in back, are super!

He is not only an accomplished surgeon but a truly caring person. I waited for 2 years, in extreme pain, and changed insurance providers twice just to make sure he was my surgeon on my total knee replacement. I wouldn't want to go to anyone else. I highly recommend him.

I was out of town in Burien, visiting, and was 3 weeks post hip replacement, and acquired Hemolytic Group B Step in the anterior incision, which was close to septic by this point. Dr. Barronian made a clinch decision and excised the wound leaving me with a lemon sized open wound, treated me with antibiotics, and told me if I did as ordered it would be fine. I did as ordered, and he was correct. He saved my hip. An impeccable physician, and I am not an easy patient, Thank you Doctor.
