“In 2026, medical care can feel rushed, and that you’re just a number… not here!! From check in, thru the visit, this office was wonderful. The doctor and his wife are so welcoming and lovely. Most thoughtful and thorough visit I’ve had with a doctor, you can tell he really cares about his patients and wants the best for them and their health journey…10/10, I’ll be back! ”

“Very knowledgeable doctor! Great listener and explained everything thoroughly- actually gave me feedback about being insulin resistant that no other doctor had explained to me in the past!! Very Friendly receptionist- super kind and sweet !!
Did bloodwork in his office, without having to go to the lab- he found my practically non existent vein so I didn’t have to get pricked more than once!! Looking forward to continuing to see this doctor for my weight loss and health journey !”

In my 91 years of life I haven't came across too many doctors that has paid this close attention to my health and concerns. Dr Wercberger sat and spoke with me and my grandson for close to an hour to address the various health issues I’m going through. He had blood drawn (which provided immediate results within 20 minutes), gave me an ekg and took an ultrasound. All on the same day. Nothing felt rushed. I haven’t seen bedside manners like this since the 1950’s. It’s good to know that there are doctors that still have the ethical values and mannerisms of yesteryears. Thank you Dr Eli Wercberger.

February 22, 2024Halyna N.Verified patient
Dr. Wercberger is an excellent osteopathic medical physician (DO). I like the approach of osteopathic physicians because they don't just focus on one particular part of the body but the body and mind as a whole. They have more of an holistic view when treating the body. Dr Wercberger is no different. His goal with me was to get to the root of the problem and to handle it systematically without rushing to prescribe big pharma medication. He was attentive and tactful throughout the visit. If you're looking for a doctor that actually cares for your complete wellness then look no further. He's the truth!
February 16, 2024Sean J.Verified patient
1. The doctor was late for an hour after the appointment. (was not in the office)
2. had an appointment for an ultrasound which turned out technician was absent at all at the time of appt
3. stuff doesn't know how to collect and care for blood samples for specific tests.
4. blood was taken without gloves.
5. The office doesn't know how to store blood to transfer it to the Lab.

Besides being an amazing listener Dr. Wercberger is also a great speaker. He explained everything very clearly and honestly bringing out the next step etc. There was a moment when I was left waiting too long but still, I’m very satisfied of the visit. He is definitely one of the best doctors around.

Dr. Wercberger has a calm and reassuring presence. He listened carefully to all of my health concerns. After the exam, he explained his findings to me slowly and clearly, answering all of my questions. I highly recommend him.

I saw two different doctors for my condition, who both said the same thing, that there was nothing to do but wait for it to clear up on its own. Dr. Wercberger took the time to give me a complete work-up and found what was causing the condition. The treatment he prescribed worked wonders.

Dr wercberger is incredible. He is the first dr that actually spent time with me and showed that he cared. He is very thorough. Had my blood drawn, and xray during my visit! I didn't have to to elsewhere for all that ! Excellent diagnostician. I would recommend leaving extra time to find a parking spot .
