I love Dr Berkson and get wonderful service from him! He’s very thorough, answers any question and spends as long as you need. But I can’t recommend the practice because it’s too hard to get someone on the phone for a quick question, not possible to call the office directly, and the hours are extremely limited. I will stay w Dr Berkson for my own care but I would not send a new patient there.
