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.

Very friendly and down to earth.
Dr. Berger was very friendly and down to earth. She made me feel more comforted and thoroughly explained my situation. She is gentle with her words and personable.

Excellent!
Dr. Berger is highly skilled and also friendly and compassionate. She took time even out of her after-hours schedule, to respond to my questions and put me at ease. I felt like she really took an interest in me as a person, not just a patient. Would highly recommend her!

Elizabeth Berger is extremely personable, excellent at conveying a medical diagnosis and explanation of all procedures. She’s patient and takes the time to answer all questions. Her follow-up is timely and her surgical skills second to none. I would highly recommend Dr. Berger for any breast-related surgery without a doubt.

Outstanding Surgeon
Dr Elizabeth Berger recently conducted a mastectomy on my wife. The surgery was a complete success but what made it a step above was the empathy and compassion shown by Dr Berger. She was so concerned about my wife’s wellbeing and made me feel so calm during the entire process. I highly recommend her for any surgery that you or a loved one might require.
