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. Bergren seems genuinely interested in my health and well being. He is kind and respectful.

Dr. Bergren was very kind and very helpful. I have had him many years in the past and he always does a good job of laying out my options when it comes to my care. He isn't dismissive with my concerns and really finds a way to diminish my worries. We had gone through this in the past and seeing a provider who understands my history put me more at ease.

Dr. Bergren is an excellent doctor, he listens to all of my questions and concerns, asks questions that are insightful to help me supply all the information he needs to make sure he is giving me the best care. I have recommend him to friends and family members who are all very happy with the level of care he provides. Several things make my appointments such a positive experience, he always checks in with me about my previous health concerns and how the treatment plan is going which is so important for me, he makes me feel like he cares about my well-being. I'm grateful that Dr. Bergren always follows through with me on everything from referrals to prescriptions, he has gone above and beyond to help me with letters that are required for me to be eligible for programs and help me with gaining access to additional care. This visit he sent a script to my pharmacy that day and I received a follow up call from his staff that the referral he recommended was approved for me the next day.

Because I was in pain the Dr. Arranged to have a zoom the next morning. We ended up with a phone call because the zoom didn't work. So he couldn't see me or my injury. But he arranged physical therapy for me. I do appreciate that! He did the best possible with a busy schedule.

Does not care at all
My uncle was a patient of Bergren for many years. He had pain from neuropathy and was given creams and pain killers for many years. In February 2024 when the pain was worse Bergrens office would not see him and just said call 911. He was riddled with undiagnosed prostate cancer he had had for many years. No annual blood work or PSA's done on his check up visits. No attempt by Bergren to examine him and diagnose this slow growing cancer. When asked as to why he does not do PSA tests, Burgren said 'its a slow cancer and tests are not necessary. He just does not care. My uncle last saw Bergren in January, and was given some cream. In February we find out he cancer in his Prostate, Bladder, both Lungs, Intestines - all completely missed by this physician.

I have been seeing Dr. Bergren for a few years now and the one thing I've noticed is he seems like he's in a hurry to wrap things up so he can move on.
