Dr. Berkson and his staff made my first visit with a dermatologist easy and comfortable. They coordinated with my GP and insurance for the referral and coverage. Besides the now-annual mole screening, at my request they openly offered sound advice on general skin care and an anti-aging regiment. I feel confident recommending them to anyone in a similar situation.
