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.

Amazing With Children on Spectrum
My 3 yr old son is on the Autism Spectrum and Non-verbal. He is also extremely sensitive to touch. Dr Bartindale and is staff were all so kind and so patient with my son. Dr Bartindale would verbalize we he was going to do. He was goofy with him to get him comfortable and more then anything he was patient with my son. My son needed and endoscopy which let’s face it is nearly impossible on a 3 yr old child to begin g with but the were prepared they had a special apparatus that held him and two of his assistants who were also very kind helped out. He did it super fast too was literally done in less then a minute and then he got stickers to go home with! I can’t say better things about him and his staff! I highly recommend and especially if your child or even teen is on the Autism Spectrum or has special needs! Thank you Dr Bartindale and your team for making what I thought was going to be a terrible visit wonderful instead!

A terrific Doctor
He took the time to explain everything concerning my hearing. He was very patient with me & answered all of my questions. With his demeanor & expertise I have full confidence in him and moving forward he will be my doctor. I saw him in Morris & his staff was fantastic too.

Dr. Bartindale saved my life
I cannot express enough gratitude for Dr. Bartindale and his incredible care. After being misdiagnosed twice with a nasal abscess, he correctly identified my pain as an ulcer on my septum. Despite my reluctance, he insisted on taking a biopsy, even knowing that cancers on the septum are extremely rare. His insistence and thoroughness saved my life. The biopsy revealed cancer, which we learned was embedded deep in my sinuses and skull base, dangerously close to my brain. He referred me to the right specialists and they removed the cancer just in time.Dr. Bartindale was the most positive and patient doctor I have ever encountered. His impeccable bedside manner made the process more bearable, and I will forever be grateful for his role in saving my life. I am now cancer-free, having just completed my final week of radiation, and will undergo nasal reconstructive surgery soon.I owe it all to that biopsy he was determined to take.Thank you, Dr. Bartindale, for going above and beyond

Stapedotomy surgery
I have had hearing loss for many years and was expecting to be told I needed a hearing aid. I was referred to Dr. Bartindale and I learned that with my type of hearing loss it could actually be fixed with surgery. He did a short, outpatient surgery which was nearly painless and several days later my hearing was normal again in that ear. I didn't realize how much I was missing!

I liked him very much and he has a great bedside manner! My husband saw him for a significant hearing lost. Dr. Bartindale sent him for a MRI to rule out a benign tumor. Well because of that call a aneurysm was found in my husbands head instead of a tumor. And now the aneurysm is fixed and my husband is doing great. Thank you Dr Bartindale! I highly recommend him. Very impressed on how he treated us.

While Dr. Bartindale has great credentials, his patient care approach lacked effective communication and a collaborative approach. I felt it was a wasted visit and he was literally walking away from me while still talking. Disappointed overall.
