Great doctor, and I was glad to be able to get in to see him on short notice, but the 75 minute wait was RIDICULOUS. There was another patient there who also had to wait over an hour, so it may be an ongoing issue with this practice. Plan accordingly.

Great doc! Helpful, nice, attentive, intelligent. Was in the waiting room for an hour and 10 minutes though. That wasn't fun, but not the doc's fault.

Great doctor, and I was glad to be able to get in to see him on short notice, but the 75 minute wait was RIDICULOUS. There was another patient there who also had to wait over an hour, so it may be an ongoing issue with this practice. Plan accordingly.

He's the BEST!
Verified patient
Great doc! Helpful, nice, attentive, intelligent. Was in the waiting room for an hour and 10 minutes though. That wasn't fun, but not the doc's fault.
Great experience all around, from the front desk, to my nurse, and Dr. Berghoff himself. He preformed the skin check and biopsy himself, whereas in many offices it's the PA. You can see he's well credentialed, but what you can't see from his resume is that you immediately get the feeling that he really does care about you. He heard out my concerns, and reassured me that everything would be ok. I feel well taken care of, and way less stressed out about things.
My visit went very smoothly. Dr. Berghoff was extremely personable, competent, and professional. Everyone at MetroDerm was very helpful--administrative staff, doctor, and doctor's assistant. I highly recommend Dr. Berghoff. Kudos!
Verified patient
Dr. Berghoff was extremely professional, easy to talk to, and could clearly articulate what issues I was having and how we should treat them. I was given a thorough exam and did not have to wait long.
Great visit.

Verified patient
Love Dr. Berghoff he is fast efficient and pleasant . He doesn't push you to try anything and even if he recommends things he ask you input . He is easy to talk to and I would recommend anyone go see him. Just don't steal my appt time :-)
Verified patient
He seemed very good. Thorough and nice enough. My wait time was longer than I expected and that is always bothersome. Overall, a good doctor and a decent visit.
wait time was minimal and the doctor came in right away after a short assessment from nurse. Doctor was very pleasant and took time to listen and explain prognosis and plan of attack.
Verified patient
Dr. Berghoff was excellent. He evaluated me thoroughly and immediately had all of the work completed. He was very friendly and so was the office staff. Do not bother doing the paperwork ahead of time, they made me fill it out all over again.
Verified patient
Pros: The doctor was great! He was very knowledgeable and took time to explain everything. The staff was very nice as well. Cons: Office had a pretty long wait. I had to fill out additional paperwork even though all my info was submitted through ZocDoc.
Verified patient
Excellent Physician.
Verified patient
Dr. Berghoff was extremely kind, and patient as I explained my symptoms and medical history. He listened and took everything I said into consideration. He is the type of doctor we need more of!!! The entire staff was kind and courteous!!!
Verified patient
Dr Berghoff is the 'real deal'. Very professional, communicative and helpful. Both my wife and I heartily recommend him.
Verified patient
Very nice man! He's a Navy vet.
Verified patient
Everything was great but the practice cannot always print off the medical history. I had to fill out a patient history. I would suggest printing them and taking a hard copy with you.
Verified patient
I feel that the care I received was top-notch and I would recommend Dr. Berghoff to my friends, relatives and patients utilising the ZocDoc website. I had put off seeing a physician for years because I experience severe anxiety when it comes to medical appointments and my fears and anxiety were quelled within minutes. Thank you to Dr. Berth off and his staff.

Verified patient
Very pleasant staff and doctor !
Verified patient
I made an appointment for a skin cancer screening. When I was called into the office, about an hour and a half after my arrival, the nurse seemed surprised as to the nature of my visit. The examination by the doctor seemed cursory at best. My last dermatologist, who recently retired, would use a magnifying glass and very bright light and make a note of the position and size of any mole on my body for future comparison. This doctor did not. While Dr. Berghoff was friendly and pleasant enough, I don't think I will be going back to him next year for my annual skin cancer screening. Hopefully he didn't miss anything that could cause me a problem.
Would highly recommend Dr Berghoff
Verified patient
Honestly, I was late to my appt, but it still took almost two hours (got there at 9:30 was seen at 11:18) for my five year old to be seen. She was only there for skin discoloration, and although the physician was nice, the visit lasted five minutes. i am not joking. I didn't realize the office was so busy but silly me, it's near hospitals. I never write reviews, but I was really disappointed. But the physician is great. So if you have time to spare, make an appt! I don't think I will be back though.
Verified patient
Wonderful
Verified patient
Even though my wait was long I felt very comfortable. There were bathrooms down the hall that were really clean and a water cooler so I could have a drink while I waited. All the staff I met were really friendly and helpful.
