How likely are you to recommend Dr. Berman?
Dr Berman performed both of my hip replacement surgeries, one in 2002 the other in 2003. My experience with him and his staff could not have been better. I even wrote him a letter thanking him for doing such a good job on my hips when I heard he was going to retire. I guess he changed his mind. He put me at ease and explained every single detail of the process and my recovery. That was 17 years ago and I have had absolutely no problems, unlike a few others I know that used other surgeons.Big ups to Dr Berman!
