Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Byrne is amazing! I just took my 2-year-old son for his first appointment with her and she was so sweet and took her time with us. I used to dread going to the pediatrician’s because they rush right into poking and prodding him, but Dr. Byrne made the appointment so relaxed.

Dr. Sarah Byrne at Root Family Medicine is -- by far -- the most talented PCP I've ever had and among the best doctors I've ever seen. I have EDS, craniocervical instability, dysautonomia and transverse myelitis, all of which have been an ordeal to untangle, and she's been completely brilliant in her ability to juggle both the big picture and small details simultaneously within a variety of rare issues. She's fundamentally there for her patients, often has last-minute slots available and, beyond her formidable intelligence, is also just a very reassuring soul when facing a seemingly endless stream of medical problems. Root Family Medicine is a vibrant reflection of Dr. Byrne, an unmatched PCP who is exceptionally smart, intrinsically open-minded and genuinely caring. If everyone could have a PCP like her the world would be a much, much healthier place. I'm eternally lucky to have Dr. Byrne as a bright lighthouse in the fog of an unusual medical picture.

Dr. Byrne has been my family's PCP for 2+ years. We are so lucky to have her and her staff. Root Family is a good team and take good care of us. I am chronically ill and I am lucky to have Dr. Byrne's support and care. She treats patients as a whole with a functional approach which is so important. Even though I live a little ways away from her office, I still remain her patient because she is worth the trip and wait. She is compassionate and gives you enough time to cover what you need to.

About Me

care philosophy

I practice family medicine using the functional medicine approach which recognizes each patient as an individual and strives to determine the root cause of one's ailment rather than temporarily fix a symptom. I value a strong doctor-patient relationship...read more
