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.

Best investment I ever made in medicine
Best investment I ever made in medicine was in contacting Dr. Bernitsky to have ACL surgery. I now have unbelievable quality of eyesight were before I was nearly blind. I cannot believe my good luck in having found Dr. Bernitsky

I had a consult with Dr. Bernitsky and was a bit saddened that I was not quite ready for RLE surgery. He was great at explaining why it wasn't best to proceed yet. Staff was kind and empathetic even though I was not a candidate. I would go back just for routine exams because of the thorough examination I received at my consulatation.

While Dr. Bernitsky did indeed give it to me straight that LASIK would be a bad idea for me, his staff were completely different in the way they treated me once I was deemed a poor candidate. Thumbs down for customer service. Instead of being encouraging and hopeful through my questions, I left in tears because of the condescending way I was treated. I felt very rushed out of the office and like my concerns were invalid.
