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.

Lower eyelid reconstruction after cancer removal. – Apr 03, 2025
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Berbos?
I am so grateful for this man and his staff!
Everyone was so pleasant, kind and professional. Recovery time was brief. I followed his pre-op and post-op instructions. The discomfort was not even worth taking acetaminophen. Most positive results and most positive surgical experience ever! The hardest thing was trying to remember not to bend over! I’m well into my 60’s and have not been reprimanded so many times in my last 50 years. Lol

Took down my earlier review
My experience with Dr. Berbos was horrid in so many ways. He basically left me with untreated eyes which I described in a review on this site which is now GONE.

I would always recommend Dr. Berbos!
He was caring and had a kindness that put me at ease for the type of surgery I was to have. The follow-ups were attentive. It's obvious that he cares deeply for his patients comfort and feeling they understand what's involved through the whole process of recovery. I felt he went above in assuring my healing went well. I was extremely pleased with everything about this doctor and his staff.

Extensive Moh's Reconstruction Surgery – Apr 12, 2024
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Berbos?
An amazing surgeon.
I would highly recommend Dr Berbos. I needed to have a mole removed from my eyelid, which turned out to be cancer, and required a second surgery. Every step along the way he explained what needed to be done and what results were expected. Considering how much eyelid ended up being taken out, the results are amazing, almost no noticeable scar. He and his staff were always helpful and professional.

I was referred to Dr. Berbos to close/fix wound on my upper right eyelid. I found him to be pleasant, knowledgeable, and awesome at explaining the details - he even will draw pics. I am 9 days Post Op and each day my eye is improving and I beginning to see the results & he did a pretty good job! Thank you!!

I would give Dr. Berbos and staff 5 Stars as they were quite friendly and made me feel at ease with my procedure. The only reason I gave 4 was that office hours showed 8am, my appointment was for 8am but for some reason there were people who saw him first so not sure if they schedule multiple people at the same time.

The minute I walked in I was greeted warmly and the back office staff was just as wonderful! However, the best was Dr. Berbos!! He was gentle, kind and very caring about my eyes. I went to him for a second opinion and I am very pleased with the results of our meeting. I highly recommend him!!

I had to wait over an hour after registering for the doctor to see me. If he was running late, a phone call would have been appreciate it so the wait wouldn’t be so long. When you have back problems, waiting that long it’s not Pleasant. The care I received was very good and the staff did apologize for the delay
