I have had the pleasure of working with Jordan as his Director for the past two years. Dr. Barnett is an excellent physician, very thorough in all of his work, and is dedicated to any project that is given to him.
It's often be said that the greatest endorsement that a physician may receive, it to have a nurse-colleague bring their family member to that physician for care. Dr. Barnett has care for me, my sister, and my nephew. And most notable, when my wife's aunt was dying of COPD, on her last admission to the hospital I was very relieve to arrive and see Dr. Barnett at her bedside. A few tense hours in the ED got her through that episode, and allowed her to recover enough to be able to die her way, at home at 2am with her sons holding her hands and her family standing around her, lying in her own bed. Consummate professional, reasoned, rational, and dedicated to getting things right the first time are traits that I have always seen in Dr. Barnett for the many years that I've known him. It's so easy at the end of a long 12 hour shift to cut corners with history and documentation on the 9th abdominal pain that you've seen that night. I've never seen this from Dr. Barnett. There is an old saying that "Character" is that what a man does when he knows no one is watching. Jordan has the character of honesty itself, as if honesty and reliance were physical things that you could touch. When you touch Jordan, you are shaking hands with integrity itself.
It is an honor for me to write this recommendation for Dr. Barnett. Within the ER department at Lourdes Health System, as well as when I worked with him at Northeastern Hospital (Temple East), he has always been the epitome of professionalism and integrity. Dr. Barnett goes above and beyond what is expected of a physician and very much focuses on the whole patient and not just the current issue a patient brings to the ER. In addition, he has tremendous collaborative qualities, where he will always take the time to solve an issue, before finalizing any decision he makes. He is a genuinely caring person who not only takes care of his patients, but everyone around him. Dr. Barnett has truly been a pleasure to work with for over 15 years.
It is with great personal satisfaction and enthusiasm that I have the opprtunity to write this letter of recommendation for Dr.Jordan Barnett. Jordan and I have known each other for seven years since we were colleagues at Norhteastern Hospital in Philadelphia where he was an outstanding member of the emergency medical team. He demonstrates the qualities of character and commitment that distinguish him an an Emergency Medicine physician and is an extremely hard worker as well as showing compassoin and empathy for every patient that he treats. Jordan also has an excellent rapport with his colleaques, support staff, and nurses, facilitating an overall esprit de corps. A fountain of energy and activity as well as a picture of integrity which comes from an inner strength that is a comfort to others. When my brother was severely ill in July, it was a relief to know that he was under Jordan's care while in the Emergency Department at Lourde's. I give my highest recommendation to Jordan because he is a dedicated and outstanding Emergency Physician as well as a worthty servant of his fellow man. I am proud to have him as my friend. Thomas E. Marchiondo, DO, FACOEP
Having met Jordan over ten years ago in the E.D. at Virtua, I was immediately impressed with his willingness to educate and mentor E. M. T's in the correct ways to report to doctors and other staff in order to better serve the patients. His leadership abilities are second to none I've seen in the Emergency Department of any hospital throughout South Jersey. I must say hats off to Dr. Barnett for his willingness to train and teach so many of the skills necessary to serve and save lives, outside of being a full time E.D. Physician. Jordan is very well organized and dedicated to his profession in service to others.

I am delighted to recommend Jordan Barnett MD on every level. As a doctor, providing care to traumatized patients, his physician's skills are top notch. Jordan makes sure to stay current, active and inter-active. His pace is quick but thorough, and he can Dance- The- Dance, in a busy, demanding ER ,along with the best ED practitioners. On meeting Jordan, unlike many burned out ER physicians, you find him obviously un-jaded; conversely, kindling enthusiasm around his proffession. Along with his practical skills, Jordan cheerfully takes up the most impossible administrative challanges and executes them to the best of his ability with grace. On a personal level, he is caring, compassionate and extraordinarily supportive, of just about everyone. Jordan is an exemplary inividual In-The-Round, and an absolute no-brainer to have on your side. I recommend Jordan Barnett with great enthusiasm, pleasure and complete support.

He has made my career thus far very enjoyable with his wealth of knowledge, respect for patients and co-workers, and the generous time he gives to answer questions. Beginning your career in an emergency room as a new nurse is very difficult. Having a physician who teaches and invites all the questions you may have with an open mind and thorough response, is very reassuring and a vital asset to any career setting. I would definetly recommend him for any position and would trust my family's lives in his hands without any hesitations.

I have the wonderful privilege of writing this letter of recommendation for Dr Jordan Barnett. I have known Dr Barnett professional for a period of approximately four years. During that timeframe I have seen him display extraordinary care to his patient, a passion for teaching, and extensive fund of knowledge. Of significant note, Dr Barnett was highly involved with the teaching of students and residents as they rotated through the department. It is my understanding that Dr Barnett also function as the Dean for the Department of Labor's EMS program. His students from that program, who rotated through the Lourdes Emergency Department were a true reflection of his dedication and mentoring abilities. I have absolute faith and belief that Dr Barnett will prove to be an asset to any organization so fortunate to have him as a member of their team. Yours truly, James, V Rocco
