I would never recommend Dr. Berson.He did a surgery to my large toe and my second toe. He was suppose to make it so that I could bend my large toe without pain, it is no longer able to bend, and I am in a great deal of pain. My second toe was moved over, it did not heal properly because of the way he pinned it, and it's up off the ground, it's not even touching the ground now. I have really bad arthritis and i am much worse off.
I wouldn’t ever recommend Dr Berson to anyone. He performed two surgeries on my ankle and after the second surgery I was in a lot of pain and he did not do anything to help me for four months. An mri was performed and all I was told was it was very inflamed. I was a 16 year old and he treated me like a child. Do not go to dr. Berson
I had bilateral chielectomies of both great toes completed by Dr. Berson for moderate Hallux Rigidus. My left foot has not done well. I went for a second opinion and was told I may still be having trouble because a large spur was left behind and the joint surface was shaved unevenly with a step off created. I may need to have another chielectomy to correct this surgery or a fusion. This has severely impacted my ability to walk and do stairs.
Dr. Berson replaced my ankle, it turned out terrible. He obviously didn't properly prepare for my surgery and put in an implant that was too big for my body. This caused bone ulcers and the implant was loose. Dr. Berson reluctantly admitted the hardware was too big for my bones, 7 months post surgery. I was treated like I was neg by him and PT. He offered to go back in and cut more bone. Needless to say, I fired him and I have one of the best surgeons in Ct. I recently had revision surgery.
Business response:
I am sorry to hear you had a poor result with your first surgery. Total ankle replacement is a complex procedure and often times requires repeat surgery. I am glad you are on the road to recovery now and wish you the best
Dr Berson was excellent with my 11 year old daughter that needed double foot surgery. I highly recommend him to anyone. Very compassionate and explained everything from the first appointment to the final checkup.
Dr Berson did my surgery and absolutely no more pain and I can wear my heels again !! I recommended him to my friends and they to like him.
Curt and overly officious -- gave me the impression that I was wasting his time despite presenting with a serious problem and a genuine need for his advice and help. Was x-rayed but Dr. Berson did not have the x-rays with him and gave no indication that he'd even glanced at them. Felt like I needed to be able to explain everything in 10 seconds to keep his attention. In sum, I don't think he really was interested in helping me. Subjective evaluation? Sure. But that was my experience.
Business response:
I am sorry you did not feel helped at your visit. Being an Orthopedic Surgeon, our clinic can be very hectic. Emergency cases, need to go to Surgery, running late from surgery etc. can lead to this. I try to spend appropriate time with all patients but I guess sometimes I can have a bad day and give the impression of being rushed. I hope you have recovered from your ailment, otherwise, I would be happy to see you in the future and hopefully could provide some help.
