Thank you Dr Barrett for 18 years of me not having to worry about my family's health, I will definitely miss you and your wonderful office family. Thank you read more

Best DR. I've ever had in my 74 years on this earth. No question about it. He and Brandie(PA) have helped me immensely and the office staff are all A -Team players. read more

I love everyone at this office. They are all so kind, and helpful. Dr Barrett is very kind. He listens to me and I feel like I'm in good hands. I highly recommend Dr Barrett. Also wonderful PA's. read more

As to your remark the previous time I came in I was told you were stepping back, (congratulations) but your more than capable PA was going to take over with you overseeing the operation. At that point you were accepting new patients. This personal attempt seemed good enough for me and when I made up my mind, I came back to find this out. I was obviously working on old information. It never occurred to me to go back and see if your website said you were leaving, or did it just say you were retiring. I have no problem with having a PA as a primary. I used the website once to try and get an appointment and never got a response, the same with a telephone recording. Don't worry I wont be back. I hope you enjoy your retirement, you earned it. read more

Caring, professional, and extremely knowledgeable! I was able to get an appointment right away! Office staff is kind and helpful!

I pay $50 monthly to get special one on one service, at least that was the pitch when we first visited this office. But the minute i make a special request to have a blood screening on my 17 year old son, they denied to do the basic blood test. They said they dont do blood screening on teens? Is there a problem with a parent wanting a blood screening for their 17 year old son? With this Dr, there seems to be. We also requested a special allergy test to screen for specific allergies my son may have. When my son and his mom visited the office (taking day out of school and fasting night prior) the primary care physician said he didnt need an allergy test and it would be too cumbersome. So he prescribed a buckshot approach of allergy meds, which is the last thing we wanted, a bunch of drugs. I called to speak to the Dr, Bart Barret while my son was there and he said he would only speak with the parent in the office. He also told me "he doesnt take orders from anyone and he wont be bullied" Needless to say, we cancelled our service with this doctors office and will be seeking a doctor that listens to patient and parent requests and is willing to do special screenings if so requested. The fact that this Dr is deflecting his responsibility in this matter and blaming it on divorced parents, shows his complete lack of concern, lack of empathy and his disingenuous attitude toward his paying customers. Yea, I pay nearly $2500 a month for health insurance and I feel that my concerns should be listened to and addressed when visiting my family care physician. I expect good service when paying good money. read more

Bart Barrett, MD - This was my sons mom texting me while at doctors office and saying the doctor would not do routine bloodwork on my son. - Family Practice Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Been seeing Dr Barrett and his staff for years. They are absolutely the best in all facets when it comes to healthcare. Staff is top notch. They spend time with each patient, usually more than needed and still find time to get you in on the day you call. He is a blessed Doctor. read more

My response to Barrett is this: a doctor who refuses to listen to a patient and verbally abuses them, ceases to be a "good doctor". A doctor who dismisses and sneers at a surgeon's pre-op request for a patient and thereby refuses the patients medical need, was never a good doctor but an ego driven example of mediocrity. Anyone with even a slight moral compass would be ashamed, but as you can see from Barrett's responses, the problem is with everyone and everything else. read more

Dr Barrett is a great, knowledgeable , and caring doctor , as is Brandie, PA. It's easy to schedule appointments and there's always availability. read more

Dr. Barrett and his staff have been my primary care providers for I don't know how many employers but they have always been great. They have always been able to do what needs to be done as quickly as necessary, no surprises and no mistakes. Plus Dr. Barrett is a blessing, period. read more

My entire family uses BB as our PC physician since moving from the east coast over a decade ago. He's simply the best. You won't find a more caring, knowledgeable Dr. A small town Dr. mentality in the city of HB. read more

Best Family doctor ever! Dr. Barrett has been our family doctor for 5 years. He's very understanding empathetic and listens to your concerns. It's rare to find a doctor that combines such personal touches and care for a patient as a person with outstanding quality of medical care. I never feel rushed, and he always asks if I have any other questions. He's awesome. Also, when he knew my medication was expensive on my insurance, he looked up what competing pharmacies charged with GoodRX and printed me out the prices, saved me lots! His front and back office staff are beyond amazing! helpful and kind every time we visit. Looking forward to bringing in our new born in March for her well-child check.. read more

Bart Barrett, MD - 4th of July my son had a small laceration that needed stitches. - Family Practice Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Care was appropriate. Was able to Get an appointment without delay. Dr. Barrett and P.A. Brandy Walton always take their time. After last visit l received a follow call from office as to my progress. read more

I write this review on behalf of my husband and myself. I have never seen Tim so happy with a doctor visit in my entire life. Dr. Barrett checked him from head to toe and gave him his honest opinion about everything. I, myself, saw Dr. Brandy last year, and she was absolutely amazing. Dr. Barrett has a very knowledgeable and personable approach with his patients. It is unlike anything that exists now a-days. Timothy and myself will be forever grateful for such a wonderful and wholesome office, along with exceptional healthcare. Thank you all for all that you do! read more

We have been going to Dr. Barrett's office for the past two years. Although we had never met him personally (until recently) all of the doctors there have been phenomenal. Last week, our daughter was very sick. We called the after-hours number late on a Friday evening. Dr. Barrett happened to be on-call, and after a brief telephone consultation offered to meet us at the office (it was 8pm by this time) to make sure everything was alright. The night before, we took our daughter to an urgent care facility (never again). Dr. Barrett quickly discovered that our daughter's sickness was misdiagnosed and she was taking antibiotics unnecessarily. He reset our level of expectation and advised on what to expect moving forward. We couldn't be happier or more impressed with the level of service we receive at this office. read more

I find it hard to believe there are negative reviews up here on YELP regarding Dr. Bart Barrett. I have had many doctors, in multiple states, over many, many years and NONE have even come close to the care I've received from Dr. Barrett. His entire staff is completely in tune with me and I couldn't be happier with the care and concern shown by him (and them) on every single interaction we've ever had. Easily, the best Primary Care Physician I've ever had... read more

Great old fashion small town Doctor! Like going back in time, Dr Barrett and his amazing staff take the time to get it right. Dr.Barrett has been my doctor for many years and always provides the knowledge , expertise and advice I need. His staff Lisa, Daniella and Stephanie take care of shots and perceptions and all your needs in a smooth efficient way. Thank you so much ! read more

I would like to say that DR. Barret has become more flexible with vaccines since the pandemic. If I were still in the area I would recommend him and be his patient again. read more

I don't have a Yelp account so I'm using my husbands. I've been in excruciating pain for the past two days. Turns out I have tennis elbow and WOW it hurts so much so that I could NOT focus on anything... level 10 PAIN. Needless to say I logged online and looked for a 5 star review doctor, I found a couple but nobody that could see me today. The office staff was nice and I waited 3 minutes. Dr. Barrett easily spent 30 minutes with me. He was compassionate and informative. He diagnosed the issue & helped to Relieve my pain during my visit... I've never experienced anything like this before, he is a godsend. I cannot express my gratitude enough & for an added bonus he's hilarious! A+ read more

Save yourself the agony of dealing with this unprofessional professional! If you want a second opinion, don't worry, he won't let you get it.... and if you do go to a second opinion, expect to be escorted out of his office and verbally exposed to his entire lobby of patients ( violating all HIPPA Laws, of course). This highly arogant professional thinks he's above the laws and will tell you to your face that, you can try to complain but nothing will ever stick! Well, thank goodness there are laws and a standard of care for ALL medical professionals! Trust your gut! If something doesn't sound right- even if it's coming out of a doctor's mouth, run! Get a second opinion before you lose sleep over a diagnosis that he's not trained to give! UPDATE on Review after Dr. Barrett's Response: Completely disgusting how complacent and ignorant this response is! Dr. Barrett, your EGO is bigger than your practice! Regardless of what you think, so far the insurance company does not agree with your practices and suggested filing formal complaints. Save your response for the Medical Board. The potential violations including but not limited to potential HIPPA Violations are astounding! Being a "Bully " in the medical world, will stop today. You cannot pretend to care, when you don't. Please do not contact me again. read more

I just watched an ad that said the average wait to see a doctor is 29 days? Unbelievable! I was able to get in and see the good doctor, actually his PA Brandie, in 1 hour and 45 minutes! Quickly diagnosing my influenza and a quick prescription of Tamiflu, I am on the mend. Thank you Doc! You and your staff are great! I truly appreciate everyone taking the time to ensure the best possible service! read more

My experience over the years with this practice has been positive. My needs are minimal and probably average one office visit per year. Unfortunately I'm switching PCP because the practice charges a mandatory $300/year for an "online services fee" which candidly is something all physicians provide (online portal, etc) at no cost. This is on top of the cost for any visits you make/services provided. In a world where health care costs are skyrocketing this seems like a money grab and as I've called to find a new PCP this is absolutely not standard industry practice and in actuality the offices I've spoken to have never heard of such a thing. One thing I'm sure of is even if these services are slightly better than others there is absolutely NO WAY the practice incurs that much additional cost per patient. RESPONSE: Yelp is about reviewing businesses. To imply it is solely about you personally would not be a fair statement (and in most cases I didn't even see you). You made a decision to charge a fee to ALL existing clients (not to add an "enchanted service" option") so naturally some will not agree as they don't necessary need those additional services. Lastly, when I respectfully shared with your team that I didn't need those services so would go elsewhere there was no concern, which is fine..everybody has a choice. I only received a follow up call after this review. So are you genuinely concerned about feedback? Or just reviews... read more

I recently was notified that my Primary Care Physician was leaving my insurance network. I was scheduled to have back surgery and had to have a PCP so I picked Dr. Barrett because he was near my home, period. In all honesty, I really didn't think picking my PCP was important, I just needed to have someone assigned. I literally chose him for the fact he was close to my house. Wow, I got lucky! We went through my entire medical history and my current health and not once did he rush through the appointment - we spent around 50 minutes together, if not more. It is an understatement to say that Dr. Barrett completely understands how to care for a patient in every aspect of their health. He is compassionate, thorough, and so so smart. I am so grateful that I chose Dr. Barrett so carelessly because he is so much more than a Primary Care Physician. I look forward to being cared for by him and truly feel blessed that I landed in his lap. Thank you, Dr. Barrett! read more

I'm writing a review to express how unprofessional this practice has been with me in the time I was here with them. I have a newborn daughter and on her first appointment I was running late. They never told me 15 min late and your appointment would be canceled. I let them know of course. I live 30 minutes away from this office and as a first time mom we all know how hard it is to leave with a new born. Yet alone be in the car that long. They were not going to take me in and gave me such a hard time. That was one. babies appointment was literally done in 5 min because they were ready to close. Dr Barrett has a very old school mentality and isn't informative in what he says or does. When I've called their hotline when I had questions they speak to me like they don't want to be on the phone. I went in for a wrist pain appointment. They felt my wrist and couldn't tell me anything? This here did it for me. I had an appointment scheduled for my daughters wellness check 4 months later. I was told if I'm not vaccinated I'm unable to come in to the office!? WTF! Vaccines are a personal choice and if I'm not sick and I'm masked up then why not let me bring in my daughter? How the hell are you suppose to do a wellness check over the phone? I'm not against a vaccine and I'm not for it. But to be refused service in-house is downright stupid. Anyways I'm just really upset how things were handled very unprofessional. If you made it this far I would definitely reconsider coming here. read more

Everyone from the front office staff, to Brandy (their wonderful PA,) to of course dr Barrett provide TOTALLY patient focused care. On occasion I've needed a referral for a specialist. In these situations, Dr Barrett has never failed to provide me with plenty of information and several options so I can choose the office that's best for me. Everyone I've ever dealt with has been not merely professional but attentive and compassionate. They never fail to provide a remarkable blend of state of the art medicine and that individualized care so often missing today. This is an outstanding model for medical care. read more

I want to thank Dr Barrett and his staff for the immediate attention that he gave my eye. Little did he or I know that I had the herpes virus behind my cornea without getting me into that opthalmologist the next day was was risking my eyesight. Mind you I left his office around 4:50 in the afternoon so it was no easy feat for them to do. He and his staff always go the extra mile and I so appreciate them. read more

Dr. Barry and his location is great. He's been in practice for 30 years. That alone should say something but if you're not someone with kids the doctor may or may not be for you. I went there for a complete physical after my doctor just wasn't servicing me properly so we yelped doctors and my wife found Dr. Barrett like I mentioned this location is great for kids, but if you're an adult, it might not be for you. Another thing that really caught me off. Guard was the intake. I told him I wanted a complete physical but no blood work was done. He just basically listen to my chest first on my belly and told me to stop drinking coffee and vaping. The other horrible part was Julie his assistant, who sat in the corner like a creepy person while Dr. Barrett read aloud his notes on me. She only spoke at the very end it freaked me out besides that great place for kids to except the intake, which is weird with the girl sitting in the corner, all in all I would give it would give Dr. Barrett five stars but the location has his staff three stars again. I went there for a full physical and no blood work was done on me. Edit: great follow up and follow through. read more

I don't know if I can find enough positive superlatives to accurately describe how much I like and respect Dr. Barrett and his staff. Extremely friendly, extremely helpful and extremely knowledgeable are the first three that come to mind. Even after I moved to Santa Clarita, I refused to find a local physician. The drive to HB is a small price to pay for the care you receive at this office. read more

I've been a patient for over a year now at Dr. Barrett's office. Each time has been a pleasant experience. Quick and compassionate care. This time around Dr. Barrett went above and beyond to provide me with quality and attentive care... A pharmacist unreasonably refused to fill a prescription I was given the same day I saw Dr. Barrett. He called the pharmacist outside of his business hours to get me my prescription. I'm very grateful because caring doctors like this are rare! read more

Dr. Barrett and his staff have cared for myself and family for many years. I've found them to be knowledgeable and caring, providing exemplary first rate medical services on a wide range of medical topics. In my opinion, you won't find better medical care anywhere else. read more

You're a local HB resident, maybe you grew up here or maybe you recently moved here or possibly you're just driving through. You've seen this house multiple times while driving along Beach Blvd and you've probably wondered what kind of medical practice would be happening in such an old bungalow-type house. Answer: high-quality medical care for the entire family that focuses on the patient's health and well-being. The outside of this house is neat and quaint with beautiful flower beds; the inside is welcoming and comfy like you wish your own home would be. But don't be fooled: this old house is equipped with high-tech gadgetry that enables the professionals inside to practice "telemedicine" - that is, "the doctor can see you now" even when you can't drive in to the office. You can communicate with the doctors and staff on your smartphone and tablet for non-emergency issues. Dr. Barrett is a servant-leader, and he and his staff are committed to providing the best care for their patients. Both he and PA Walton listen intently, carefully and genuinely offer what patients NEED, not necessarily what the patient wants. How easy is it for any doctor to fill a script and get as many patients in & out of the office as quickly as possible... other medical groups would benefit by following Dr. Barrett's practice and methods. read more

Met Bart for the first time last week. Very thorough and walks you through everything. If he can do it in his office he will!! great person and great doctor! read more

I would recommend Doctor Barrett and NP Brandy any day. I was looking for a good doctor and saw all the good reviews and hoped it was true and I am so glad to have found them. Normally I see Brandy and she is very helpful and truly cares. When I need help on weekend, they are just a call away in emergency cases! Unfortunately, my work switched to Kaiser and I had to leave, but if ever I can go back I will! read more

I've gone to many doctors offices and it's rare when doctors spend quality time with you to thoroughly answer your questions or even have interest in you as a person. I love Dr. Barrett, PA Brandie, NP Donna and his whole staff! A huge thank you to the girls: Helen, Kathy, and Gina. They are truly amazing people who provide friendly & exceptional service! Even if they're busy, they take their time to make you feel important. When you have questions for the doctors, or the staff they do get back to you asap. I am thankful I found them to be my pcp and will definitely refer my family and friends. read more

I love Dr. Barrett and his whole staff, they are always cheerful and greet you with a smile and a friendly word. The office is always comfortable and inviting read more

You will not find a better primary care physician in Southern California. He truly cares about his patients, mind, body, and soul.

I've only been seeing Dr. Barrett for a few months now, but I can honestly say that if you aren't happy with your primary care doctor, then you need to switch and see Dr. Barrett. First off, he's a doctor that spends time with you and listens to what's ailing you and asks questions. He's not a doctor trying to get through his quota to make a profit. His staff is friendly and always willing to answer your questions no matter how simple they may be. I have only one regret and it's that I waited so long to go and see him. I'm glad I did. Your health is too important to go see someone who's only concern is making money. read more

Dr. Barrett was was very friendly, and helpful about all of my questions. I have chest issues I've been battling with my entire life, and he knew immediate ways to help fix the problem I was having. I've never been so impressed with a doctor in my life! My whole family will be switching over to him right away. read more

Dr Barrett along with his entire staff are absolutely the best. I have been going to Dr Barrett for many years and I have never found an office that is more competent, and the staff is top notch. I cant say enough great things about the care I have received and will continue to offer nothing but praise. read more

Very family friendly. The staff is professional and I've never experienced long wait times here. I enjoy the feel of an old school one-on-one personalized care from a family doctor. Disney decor is a free bonus read more
