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.

Horrible Experience
You're better off going to Dr. Nick from The Simpsons than Dr. Breger. He's rude, dismissive and condescending. Bad personality and I wouldn't know how he is as a practitioner seeing as how he took no time whatsoever to actually do an exam. Find a different doctor!

Unresponsive and Egotistical
Dr Breger was on call when I was 2 weeks post surgery and developed a UTI from pain meds. Left 2 messgs at 11 pm and 12 pm. Didn’t get a call back until 4 am. Caused me to be in severe pain unnecessarily for an extra day and a half. Dr Breger, on call doesn’t mean you go to sleep for the night and then check at 4 am to see who called. I love this practice (for 40 years) but would never see or trust this doctor. That is my opinion. Bad news. And so egotistical that feedback to him is not an option. Humility and concern is as important as smarts. He has none of the former.

Would not help my dying father
If you are 100 years old and in tremendous pain, you do not want Dr. Breger as your doctor. He neglected my father and our family during the final weeks of my dad’s life, after we called and emailed pleading for help. And to add insult to injury, Dr. Breger left a petty bill for a supposed service which we do not believe occurred. Endeavor now sends mail to a deceased man, threatening to turn the bill over to collections. Calls to Endeavor Health have not helped. Has no one in this office any common sense?

Find Someone Else
Not a good experience with him or his rude nursing staff. While Dr. Breger comes off as friendly and assuring, he is quick to dismiss and brush aside any concerns with vague answers that I could have gotten myself in an online chat room with strangers. A couple weeks later and I'm feeling a whole lot worse than before I saw him, and I had to figure out what was going on with me without the help of him or his office as they are impossible to reach with Northshore Connect or a phone call. When you finally do get a hold of them, they are extremely rude, and carry attitude.

Dr. Breger has been my physician for over 20 years. He's been consistently accurate, patient, punctual, reliable, and caring. He always takes the time to learn my concerns. He's been remarkably timely, even on the occasions when problems have arisen on weekends and evenings. He takes care of all of our adult children, and I've recommended him to a number of other friends and family members, both male and female, who have all been equally pleased. Good staff too.

I saw Dr. Breger as my primary care physician. I've had an incredibly difficult time reaching him or any of his staff concerning an issue I am having with a prescription I need filled. Ive called 4 times now over a period of 2 weeks, Each time I call I speak to a representative of Dr. Breger'a staff who assures me a call back from a nurse or Dr. Breger updating me on the status of the form I need. I have yet to receive even a singlecall from Dr. Bregers office, despite the urgency of the matter.
