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.

Surgeons make money from surgery, which is what this doctor will jump to. Took my 6 week old to him to review an ovarian cyst less than 2.5cm, his automatic response was she needs surgery. Not, let's take another scan bc the last was when she was 2 days old. His response to telling him we're going to get a second opinion, "What, to hear that your kid's cute?" Yes, a direct quote. Zero bedside manner and other doctors have seen since have given us a 180 opinion...save yourself time and skip him.

Too quick to say "nothing is wrong" by rubbing my child's neck and saying the lumps don't feel as large as the ultrasound reports showed. Here we are 6 months later, those lumps are a major issue awhere my child has to now see a pediatric hematology/Oncology specialist as grew larger! He refused to do a biopsy. A biopsy that the pediatrician said was needed! This could have saved my child from now having to go through more extensive testing and still have the biopsy, just delayed 6 months!

Dr. Bergman is a true professional! His compassion, confidence, and amazing bedside manner are just some of the qualities that make this man a wonderful doctor! We met him when I was pregnant and he removed my daughter's CPAM lung mass at 12 weeks !

Absolutely excellent. He did our newborns omphalocele repair. I also have met other moms who used him for their children as well as nurses who all say only excellent remarks about Dr. Bergman. If you need a pediatric surgeon he is tbe one!
