PEABODY, MA — A Peabody-based healthcare staffing and recruiting agency recently earned national recognition from the Healthcare Business Review.

The Review recognized Barton Associates as a trusted partner for the placement of staff across the country amid a struggle with a shortage of physicians.

Barton, with nine offices nationwide, was nominated for the award by Healthcare Business Review subscribers and earned the recognition following an evaluation by a group of industry thought leaders, C-level executives, and the publication’s editorial board. This is the second award Barton Associates has earned from Healthcare Business Review; last year, the company was named a Top Healthcare Staffing Service Company for 2023 by the publication.

"The physician shortage doesn't only impact a hospital or clinic's bottom line — it serves as an immense barrier for patients to obtain the medical care they need and deserve.
