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.

Great doctor!
Very Personable. I appreciated that he was detailed and gave me all my options.

Expensive and insulting
I was there for 15 minutes. The office charged me $241! The doctor did nothing for me and insulted me. He told me: 'You should stay off the internet and just trust your doctors.'(NOTE: That attitude is what got millions of people hooked on opioids!) I really wonder if he would have said that to me if I were a man.

Excellent care
I've been experiencing subprime consistent with carpal tunnel syndrome and finally decided to see a specialist about it. Based on the recommendations of family and family friends, I chose Dr. Bernstein based on his availability and location. After this morning's initial examination, I have confidence in the next steps he's set me on.
