Dr. Jerry Elliott Berland, MD

Dr. Berland completely talks over you, rushes appointment after waiting a full hour between nurse and him with my 14 month old. He asked me to sit up and proceeded to physically move my body forward instead of letting me do it myself. He just spits out medical terms to his assistant and speaks over parents as if they know nothing. I asked simple question and he just cut me off and told me to let him explain. He was a referral from my pediatrician and I will be letting them know that they should stop referring him as he is completely unprofessional and rude.

After walking the parking lot for 40 minutes with my one year old child waiting for my appointment with Dr. BERLAND, I finally saw him walk into the building I’m assuming from a late lunch. He wasn’t busy with other patients just not at the facility. I went inside to check on my appointment which was supposed to be at 12:40pm and they finally got me in at 1:30pm.. mind you I have a 1 year old. He opened door without knocking and addressed my 1 year old as “how’s my girl doing” but NEVER addressed me. He didn’t ask me any questions and when I did ask him a question he told me “just let me do my job”. Any comment or question I made, he was completely dismissive and disrespectful.When my daughter got fussy because he was trying to shine a light in her dialated eyes after she’s been there for 2 hours he seemed like he couldn’t handle her fussiness and I had to awkwardly nurse her so he could check her eyes with his face basically right up in my boobs. Maybe if he was on time she wouldn’t… have been so fussy and maybe if he knew how to work well with children he could have improvised instead of having me nurse her. I had so many questions that I wanted to ask him as it was my first time at a doctor like that and he rushed out the door leaving me hanging. He had an attitude that his “crap doesn’t stink” and “I’m a doctor and I’m better than you” and didn’t really care about me or my daughter.
