Dr Barfield is so attentive and sincere. He spent a lot of time just talking with me and getting to know me before even dealing with my health issues. This type of care is rare in the medical community.

Dr. Barfield was thorough, personable, and a pleasure to be examined by. It almost makes me want to go back again, buy who likes visiting the DR. when you don't have to.

Our family members are relatively new patients of Dr. Barfield's, and we have all scheduled visits with him at least 2 or 3 times in the past 18 months. Everyone has been very complimentary of his communication skills, and the time he spends with us. For me personally, he has properly diagnosed a few minor ailments, and offers multiple sources of information for resolution. Dr. Barfield asks the right questions, and he has said on more than one occasion that his goal is quality of life with the least amount of required medication. I highly recommend Dr. Barfield as well as the Frist Clinic.

Dr Barfield is a really great doctor. He understands that paying attention to the whole body is important. He was fast but thorough with my visit. I couldn't have gotten a better doctor after losing Dr. Martin. I praying to have a long and helpful connection with him. Thank you so much Dr. Barfield for just first being yourself but second being a good friend who cares so much about his patients.

I drive an hour and half to see Dr. Barfield. He is an outstanding doctor that does not rush me and talks to me about my health goals. I've never had a doctor do that. I highly recommend him.
