Entered into the modern waiting area and was greeted by friendly personnel manning the office. Fill out the normal amount of paperwork for a 1st visit (requested the packet be PDF's and emailed to me for offsite filling out, but Show moreit did not happen, would recommend adding this feature). Arrived at 11 AM, got into room at 1145, and started with the nurse for the normal Blood Pressure & questions. The Doctor was next and that was a pleasure as we shared some common interests & experiences. He listened intently as to my problem, and recommended a solution, which was a shot of cortisone in the painful sciatica left hip. So far the pain is subsiding as predicted which is great! Prescribed both work out order, Aleve OTC for the near future, and MRI at Memorial Miramar. Bottom-line, 1st class experience.
Very friendly staff the doctors aid was very nice and the doctor was extremely proficient and knowledgeable He listens and did a great examination makes you feel comfortable I enjoyed my visit

5 stars for my 1st appointment. So far so good. I do like Dr Berkower, seems like he wants to get to the root of my pain issues. I’m liking that.
So kind and knowledgeable. Great bedside manner. I’m usually nervous and he made me feel calm!

Well Doctor is very care and he listen and spent time with his patients ...Five stars for My Doctor
Very effective treatment of pain. I m thankful for Dr Berkower’s care of Me
Was very friendly and offered conservative therapy for my back complaint which I am about to try.
Dr. Berkower and his staff are truly patient and very kind. The wait is definitely long, over an hour which is why I only gave it 4 stars rather than 5.
