20/20 vision in my left eye are the results from a cataract surgery performed by Dr. Craig E. Berger. Excellent Ophthalmologist!

At first, Dr Berger is rather quiet and I wasn’t impressed with his bedside manner at first. However, after a few appointments... he opened up some and was friendlier. You have to take the first step with him. But, his work is excellent. He checked and double checked to make sure things were going right. I had a cataract removed, then had to have a cornea transplant and I can say that it was worth it. His staff is also to be commended, as they helped me in many ways from questions to meds.

Due to a sudden emergency I emailed the office on a Sunday requesting a new patient appointment. I received a response the same day from Dr. Berger himself asking for us to come in first thing Monday morning. Dr. Berger and his staff were so accomodating, friendly and he was very knowledgeable. We had a great experience and can't thank him enough!

I have been a patient of Dr. Berger for over a decade and he treats my chronic dry eye from GVHD. He also preformed Cataract surgery on both of my eyes to great success. I highly recommend him. He is an expert in the field. His staff is friendly and he takes most insurance . Great bedside manner.

I have been so confident of Dr. Berger's professional depth of experience through several appointments for two separate ophthalmology needs. In June, Dr. Berger did a cataract procedure on my right eye with amazing and immediate results. Everything was thoroughly investigated and procedural needs explained. Surgery reflected professionalism on all levels. Follow-up thorough. We both even remarked at the 1-day visit..."It's as though I didn't have surgery.. perfect results."

I am very thankful for finding Dr. Berger and his willingness to go forward with this challenging triple procedure considering the condition of my left eye. I am pleased with the results and appreciate his patience and, importantly, his skill with this difficult procedure. I also appreciate Lisa Oliveri for her patience fitting me with a scleral contact lens. The office receptionist/appointment coordinator, Giovanni, is always friendly, courteous and willing to help.

I really was looking forward to meeting Dr. Berger as a new patient but didn't get a chance because of a BIG MISUNDERSTANDING & INCONVENIENCE. First, I called scheduled an appointment with a lady that said, we do take United Health Care Choice Plus so, when I arrived the guy at the front desk took my card & 9 pages of paperwork as a new patient. As I waited then was called back to tell me that they don't take my insurance, keep in mind Dr. Berger is in the Network, I called my ins to verify. 

Business response:

Please accept my apology for the confusion and inconvenience. Currently I do not accept this plan. The fact that even your insurance company got it wrong demonstrates how much confusion there is out there! Your plan provides for out of network benefits. I would be honored to see you as an out of network provider.

For over three years I was looking for an eye surgeon who not only was knowledgeable and skilled at cornea transplants, cataract surgeries and Fuch’s Dystrophy but also compassionate to his / her patients. Dr. Craig Berger is all of the above. I have spoken to many of his patients while I was waiting to be seen by Dr. Berger and everyone had the same respect and feelings for Dr. Berger that I have. His staff treats you with respect and is friendly. Excellent surgeon and staff.
