“Great office - concierge quality service from Irina who called me to confirm and then upon arrival Dr. Gerber was thorough and attentive. Also love that they offer weekend appointments because it’s so hard to get off work during the week. Would 1000 percent recommend - I didn’t know when I booked the appointment but in addition to being an internist/PCP they also specialize in medically supervised weight loss and have state of the art equipment to assist with same.”

July 13, 2024Dawn P.Verified patient
I had a great visit at Dr. Berger's office. I was looking for a new, local GP that I could feel comfortable with as I transition into middle age. Dr. Berger fulfilled my expectations. The office was clean and neat. After I filled out the new patient forms I waited about 3 minutes before the desk-assistant led me back to the examination room. Dr. Berger came in a minute later and introduced himself and began the exam. I was impressed by his thoroughness. Dr. Berger dived deep into my family and personal medical history. His bedside manner is calm(almost soft-spoken), confident, and professional. His movements were measured and steady during the physical examination. I presented a multitude of questions/ideas and he patiently and clearly answered/addressed all of them. I never felt rushed at all. He even brought me a mask at the end because his next patient in the waiting room had a cold; I thought that was very professional. I'll be coming back to Dr. Berger for my future medical needs.
