Had a great experience with Dr. Michael Berkson today. They got me in right at my appointment time. Dr. Berkson listened to all my concerns, was very kind, and even gave me a sample of the medicine. I used it as soon as I got home and couldn’t believe how effective the face cream was for my rosacea. Everyone — the receptionist, nurse, and doctor — was super friendly. Overall, really happy with my visit!
