Dr. Bercik was very personable and explained everything clearly. Gave me options to consider. Highly recommend
Gave me his personal number if I had any issues. Walked me thru the process
Highly recommend! He’s determined to get to the bottom of whatever is causing an issue. He listens and answers questions. Explains what he is that I understand.
Exceptional bedside manner. He really listens and answers all questions. He replaced my right shoulder and after only 4 weeks it works like a charm.
Great 1st impression. Kind, understanding and personable.
Very good
Wait time excessive for office visit
He's pleasant but needs to work on empathy. There's something missing from the visit. My medical issue was addressed but without any degree of humanity. There was no reassurance. I felt like a billable ICD 10 code and nit an individual with a problem that has deeply affected my daily life.
Good doctor
Very personal and so far very good
