Everyone at the office was great including the PA, Jeff, Scheduling dept. and the doctor. I am extremely nervous about getting this operation, but everyone really worked at making me feel comfortable and easing my worries.

My visit was awesome! It was too quick and fast, but the information was beneficial, I just wish they weren't in such a hurry. There was a lot of scuffling from place to place, however everyone was very nice and helpful. They all seemed confident in their jobs and answered questions a lay person could understand. I think the leg wraps to prevent blood clots should be included in the surgery as standard operating procedures and not charge additional funds. That was the only jaw dropping instance. Being able to get the surgery done on a timely basis was beneficial.

Went there because I need a TKA. Sadly, he wouldn't answer specific questions other than to say he would do what's best for me. Also assured me that he's the best in the world at what he does. Really!?!

Appreciated that I didn't have a long waiting time. Everyone was professional & helpful. I wish they had provided more suggestions about how I can minimize the development of more arthritis through exercise, etc., without suggesting surgery as the primary solution.
I felt like the whole process of making the appt, to the visit with the Dr., and follow up with surgery scheduling was all very efficient and well coordinated. Dr Berenice listens and cares and has a professional Staff which makes this experience a lot easier.

I used Zocdoc to secure an early morning appointment with Dr. Berend. I was in and out within 45 minutes, which is very good for that practice.
It was perfect, as always. I'll see him in a year. Have recommended this doctor to several of my friends. They have seen him and love him too.

Dr. Berend recommended non invasive treatment initially. Did not pressure me for surgical knee replacement which made me comfortable with his recommendation. (I was ready for surgery)
Verified patient
Excellent
Dr. Berend has always had the best of manners and way of speaking to patients (and they spouse)! He is direct, but answers all questions and takes the time that he needs to, to make sure that his patient understands, whatever the question is. Besides all of this, he is a GREAT SURGEON!!
Verified patient
Dr. Berend is the best. He's understanding.
I thought it was just great. He looked at my x-rays , checked my right knee and told me right away what needed to be done to correct my previous surgery. I was there on tuesday and scheduled for surgery on thursday. I was very happy with that seeing as we want to leave for Arizona on the second of January.
