Barton Associates has always organized my travel, as a locum, flawlessly. If desired, they will book your air travel on the airlines of your choice and honor your frequent flyer programs. The reserved accommodations are extremely comfortable and convenient to the locums assignment. The rental cars have, also, been thoughtfully arranged and if there is ever a problem with a reservation, such as one is weathered out of a return flight home, Barton will negotiate with the rental car agency about a one way drop home. They will rearrange flights, as needed, too. The hassle is definitely taken out of the trip to and from the locums assignment.

I began talking with my recruiter at Barton Associates at the beginning of the summer. I have worked two locum tenens assignments with Barton so far and my recruiter has been enormously helpful and I have been delighted to work with her (Jessica). She has done a great job in providing opportunities to me and always follows up. My experience has been very satisfying and I have appreciated the opportunity Barton has given me.
I enjoy working as a locum and did so full-time prior to opening my own practice. I actually regret the decision to open my practice and am closing it to start working as a full-time locum tenens physician once again. I enjoy working as a locum because it allows me to escape from the business side of medicine. Locums has also allowed me to see new places and gain new experiences in my career.

Whitney, I very much enjoyed working with you throughout the credentialing process. You helped things flow very smoothly by providing all of the required documentation in such a timely manner. For that very reason we were able to get our locum physician to work and on the floor seeing patients promptly, fulfilling our needs. Your enthusiasm toward your job is to be commended, and it certainly made my job much easier.
- Kelli C.

I know I have told you this in the past, but what helped me the most was how quickly you responded to everything I needed to get the credentialing process on our end completed as quickly as possible. You would send me documents, help contact people regarding delays in responding to my verification requests, etc. I have worked with several different locum companies and Barton’s has far exceeded the others. If anyone were to ask my opinion on a locum tenens agency, I would strongly recommend Barton Associates.
- Debbie P.

Dear Paige,
I hope Barton Associates recognizes just how good you are, and gives you a raise. If you need me to tell your boss, just give me his or her name!
Let the New Year be your best year yet!

Whitney worked with me to privilege a Nurse Practitioner in our facility. Based on her work, I would rank her as one of the best consultants I have ever worked with.
This project required Whitney to assist me with aspects of credentialing that are not normally required. The project we worked on was time sensitive and Whitney distinguished herself by consistently submitting all required documentation in an efficient and timely manner. Whitney has good communication skills and is always prompt and helpful. Whitney went above and beyond to assist me with this high stress project.
If my experience with Whitney is any indication of how she performs on a regular basis, she is an extremely valuable asset to Barton Associates.
If I can be of any further assistance, or provide you with any further information, please do not hesitate to contact me.

I want to personally thank you and congratulate you for being the best at what you do. It’s quite clear you are truly dedicated to locum tenens staffing and are proud of your work. That makes you “special and rare.” I feel lucky to have met you and to have you representing me. I know my reputation is in the best of hands and will be handled with care.

Finding a locum tenens job in a location and setting you want can be difficult and a hassle. That’s where having a great locum tenens company comes in. What can be a difficult process becomes effortless when you have a company like Barton Associates working for you. They take care of all the nitty gritty stuff and make your life easier. It’s nice when the malpractice, flights, credentialing, car rental, and housing is all taken care of for you by them. This, for me, is another reason I love being a locum tenens doctor.

One of the vital factors that enhances the overall locum experience is the integrity of the locum tenens company that you work with. I have come across locum companies that collected all of my information and never did anything with it. Then there are those locum agencies that ‘credential’ you at facilities and then do nothing further. My Barton Physician Recruiter, John, was constantly checking on locum tenens jobs for me. I got to pick and choose and, more importantly, I felt no pressure to just ‘fill a slot’.

After I closed my practice, I realized I was not ready to retire. Locum tenens was an option, but I had no experience in this area. I talked with Barton Associates as well as other locum tenens companies to obtain information on available locations, compensation and policies, and have found Barton to be an exceptional locum tenens company. The staff has been knowledgeable, consistently responsive and a pleasure to work with, and compensation and policies are definitely practitioner-friendly. Working through Barton has proven to be positive for me, and I recommend the company to my colleagues.

I retired from 28 years of Emergency Medicine (EM) practice, and while on a cruise “Down Under”, I discovered the wonders of Australia and New Zealand. I thought about how I would enjoy some quality enculturation, but while performing a cost analysis, I was not sure I could afford a lengthy stay in either country. I had heard the term “Locum Tenens”, and I thought I knew what it meant. Internet research corroborated my suspicions, and after some emails and phone conversations, I initiated my EM rebirth as a “Travel Doc”, a lifestyle of wonderment, fun-folks and a cornucopia of cultural/professional enlightenment.
My first assignment was in the lush, verdant and sunny-white sand beaches of the Virgin Islands; I did a six-month assignment at a regional referral hospital in the South Island of New Zealand (great skiing), I’ve practiced in a multitude of Rural and Community Hospitals plus I’ve been afforded the opportunity for service in Teaching Institutions. I’ve associated with nine different staffing companies, and none outstrip the service offered by Barton Associates.
Jessica’s ability to assess my needs then deliver appropriate positions invites a warm glow of gratitude; her colleagues function at a similar level of professionalism. My greatest gratitude to Jessica & Company is she never pushes me to accept an offer. She presents her menu of positions and if I’m interested, fine, if not, she graciously continues her search. And as an avid skier, this is one of my drawing cards to the Locum Tenens Lifestyle. I work when I choose and play in a similar manner. Thank you, Jessica, and thank you Barton Associates for your company which helps me maximize my enjoyment of my EM practice.

From day one I have been thoroughly impressed with Barton’s continued commitment to me as a nurse practitioner locum and a medical professional. Their credentialing process was simple and my nurse practitioner recruiter has gone the extra mile to establish and maintain a great relationship with me so that she is always aware of my practice needs and location preferences. I recommend Barton Associates to anyone who is looking for a locum tenens company. Barton is my only locum tenens company and I feel privileged to be associated with them. Barton continues to exhibit professionalism, organization, respect, and motivation to work for me and that’s the difference that puts them above all other locum tenens companies.

For locum tenens jobs, there is no one that beats Barton!!!!!!

The physicians that I have received were always well-screened and informed of their assignment. Office personnel is dependable, efficient and pleasant to work with in what is often a very “time is of the essence” situation. What I find the most attractive about Barton is their efficiency in finding the right candidate for the position and their ability to make it happen!

Barton Associates has proven to truly understand what it means to have a need for physicians to treat our patients. They have consistently risen to the occasion and have been easily accessible, even after hours. As we know, Health Care is a 24/7 business. Julie has been a significant part of the success of the business as she is reliable, accountable and always positive and pleasant to work with. She is an exemplary reflection on Barton Associates.
Now for the physicians: Top Notch!! Our team has professional respect and works collegially with the locums from Barton’s as they are clinically excellent.
Thank you for the opportunity to reflect on the excellent service Barton Associates provides.

I have been working with Jon (our locum tenens recruiter) for the last few months and he has been a pleasure to work with. Jon is a go-getter, efficient and very responsive to our needs. He always follows up with us—even if we need him on the weekend or up to midnight, he calls if needed! And yes, that has happened. Barton provides physicians that meet our needs and nothing less. Jon is always happy on the phone, and I sense that he takes pride in his work. Jon has done a great job and I have referred him to our sister company as well as other recruiters in-house.
