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 Bernot is an Amazing doctor my time under his care was great very attentive to my needs while under his care. I recommend him very highly. I will be leaving soon to another state but he will be truly missed by me his staff was very professional & caring as well.

Dr. Bernot did meniscus surgery on my knee 7 yrs ago, allowing me to go back to play soccer. Now that I had a shoulder injury the choice was easy. He treated me with great success. He listened to me, and explained the problem and treatment.

Great doctor
I’ve seen him before for a knee issue, and when it flared up, I went back to him. There wasn’t any significant delay in being evaluated and treated. He is pleasant, knowledgeable and experienced. I am certain he will get me feeling better!

Excellent Doctor!
Dr. Bernot performed ACL reconstructive surgery for me. He is knowledgeable, caring and an excellent surgeon. He takes time to educate his patients and he listens intently. I am in my mid 50s and the surgery was a success and my recovery has been ahead of schedule. Office visits with his staff have been professional and efficient. I am fortunate I chose Dr. Bernot and thankful for the care I have received. I would recommend him to anyone in need of orthopedic care.

I have had a couple of procedures performed by Dr Bernot (shoulder and knee). I was very pleased with outcomes. He takes time to discuss why you need surgery and how it will be performed. It's always last option. I would definitely recommend Dr Bernot and Peachtree Orthopedics.

Dr. Michael Pernot MD, defines Quality care
I came in to see Dr. Pernot, to have him diagnose why I was having so much shoulder pain. He is a real doctor, professional, friendly, caring and very organized. He knows his specialty inside and out, and knows what he is doing. He listened to everything I said, examined me, gave me an X-ray of my shoulder, right then and there in his office, and showed me what he saw on the X-ray, and he knew exactly what was wrong and he began giving treatment right away, he gave me a hydrocortisone shot in my shoulder, he new the exact location where to inject the shoulder, and I thought it was going to be painful, but he explained it was just like getting a vaccination and that’s all it felt like, and it helped me a lot. He also took the time to show me the perfect exercises for stretching, and provided me with PDFs of other great exercises. He has taken care of numerous professional athletes, which have gotten injured a lot worse than me. Don’t hesitate make an appointment,

Amazing!
He fixed a botched surgery on my left knee. 1.5 years later my right knee is in pain. I called his office and was able to be seen on the same day! I hope I don't need surgery, but if I do, I know I'm in good hands.

Dr Bernot and knee surgery
Dr Bernot has extensive surgical experience. Before he surgically replaced my knee I checked him out and he passed with flying colors. After a year, my knee is in great shape - no pain, can do stairs, ride an Exercycle and stand for long periods of time. The scar is barely noticeable. If choosing a surgeon don’t just go for the name of the surgeon’s group, check out Dr Bernot. I highly recommend him and his PA, Lindsey.

Awesome Professional Surgeon
My visit from start to finish with my 2nd Full Knee Replacement with Dr. Bernot has been awesome. His knowledge, experience, staff, great bedside manners, his ability to know you and what you need and his caring attitude are all awesome. Dr. Bernot and his team always made me feel special and always provided great care from my first visit until I was just discharged in 7 weeks! If you are looking for an incredible surgeon, Dr. Bernot will be your first choice! I really mean it! Thanks Dr. Bernot and team for all your great efforts!
