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.

I made a mistake by giving a great Review
I wish to the good lord above that my 17 year old son did not have to go through being criticized by Dr. Berk , very disappointing to know the true outcome of a non caring dermatologist. Not helpful in the end at all , complete waste of time and very unprofessional.

NOT Recommended
Very disappointed. I previously saw Dr. Berk and his remedy was only partially successful. Over a year later, I had another issue and reluctantly went to see him. His remedy was not successful at all so I called the office and related the issue to the desk woman, asking if he could prescribe something else or should I come in to see him. She said she would have one of the medical staff contact me. No one called me. After two days, I called again and left a message requesting a call back. After one week, no one ever called. I will be returning to a previous dermatologist which is disappointing since Dr. Berk is very close to my home. Since his remedies don't work and there is absolutely no follow up, I would not recommend him or that office.

If you are looking to wait a half hour in a waiting room to be taken back to an examination room to wait another half hour to see Dr. Berk - than this is your guy. On top of that his nurse/assistant is rude. I left the office without seeing Dr. Berk. I too have time commitments. I heard multiple patients check-in for the same appointment time (mine being one of them). He double and triple books for his selfish convenience. That's simply inconsiderate. When I left his office the waiting area had at least 10 people waiting. I am /was a patient of his - however not any longer. I understand there are emergencies...but this Doctor creates the waiting problem. Stay away unless you enjoy waiting around and have nothing else to do.

Receptionists offered incorrect information. Horrible billing department, especially Juliet, refused to correct their mistake.
