Dr. Mark Allen Berman, MD

I was a patient of Dr Berman for 10 plus years. My wife and two children were patients there as well. My wife always felt as though he wasn't a very good doctor. I had backed him up and given the benefit of the doubt for years because he was my doctor from when I was a kid. However over the years I noticed more and more, just how unprofessional he is. He is always in a rush, and makes you feel like just a number. As I mentioned, I was a patient of his for over 10 years and he never knew anything about me when ever I would visit. He rushes out of the room and finishes conversations with you while he is halfway out of the room, standing in the door way. He will not listen to more than one problem in a visit. If you are there for one thing, but just mention concern about something else, he will actually stop you, and say that you need to set up a separate appointment for that. He will not talk to you over the phone ever ( his office staff say that is against his policy). He suggested that… I get a certain operation for a hernia years ago. I recently went in for an appointment, and told him I was having trouble with it. He asked where the operation was and when I had it done. I was shocked that he wasn't aware of this. Then he went on to say that this procedure is very bad in his opinion and he thinks that they are very troublesome. Nice to know. Would have been much nicer to know before I got it from his recommendation to boot! Long and short is if you are looking for a good family doctor that will treat you and your kids well, and develop a relationship with over years of seeing him, Dr Berman is not your man!
