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.

While other MDs still advertise in this area and several close their practices to work for the local hospital Dr Berk remains as fully booked (not taking new patients - officially) as in the fall of 1994 when I first saw him thanks to "commendation" in the Healthcare Field (not taking new patients in 1994). He is a genuinely caring man with the best overall range and depth of knowledge of anyone I've know in the healthcare field (In my case that says a lot as I've known far too many providers!

For 21.5 years Dr Berk has helped me deal with many pesky conditions a chronic bad back that is falling apart gradually as well as a few potentially life threatening situations and very good care when I was in intractable pain due to a surgeons indifference and negligee in June of 2002. He has provided not only medication, suggested procedures and given referrals when needed. He's done more than it is reasonable to expect of one main. His knowledge is extremely broad and deep.
