Understanding, caring doctor. Takes time to understand the problem, and communicates the solutions. Really helpful and concerned for total patient and follows through to resolution. He really made us confident that we were in good hands.

He is knowledgeable, patient, explains what is going on. He does not make you feel your questions are stupid or irrelevant. He understands what you are there for and your fears, plus his diagnosis and treatment has always been right on.

Dr. Bergelson is not only the best doctor, but he's also like your best friend. He makes you feel at ease, tells you everything about your problem, how he's going to work with it, and what you have to do to help. He doesn't rush the office visit, answers all of your questions in a matter of complete understanding to you. It's almost worth having a heart problem just to have him as your doctor. My husband didn't trust many people, but adored and loved Dr. Bergelson. I'm right behind him in those feelings. I always tell anyone I know who has a heart problem to see him, he feels that G-d directs his hands and knowledge, rather than take credit for his work. He also believes in eating healthy food. We need many more doctors like him, he's just wonderful!!! My rating for him would be one in a million.
