Dr Bernstein has a nice smile and friendly disposition. I don’t always feel he listens to my questions or concerns. When I try to ask a question or concerns often feel shut down.

Dr Bernstein did not review with me the ekg reading that his assistant had JUST DONE. His assistant, Ava, didn't discuss it with me either. He did, however, explain the reading on the ekg done at my pcp's office in April, 2026.
That being said, he did explain what exactly showed up on the ekg done at my primary office
