Dr. Barnstein was very knowledgeable and professional. He explained everything to me in a language I could easily understand. I would recommend him for any hand wrist issues. I was very satisfied with the results and follow up after surgery and the practice has an excellent PT department.

From the minute you walk into the office you are met with friendly, professional, wonderful staff. Never wait for an appointment. Everyone is so accommodating from the front staff, to all the staff. Great interdisciplinary team. Dr. Bernstein always met you with a wonderful and caring smile and a wealth of knowledge. Couldn’t have asked for better care for my wrist than I received.

Dr. Bernstein is outstanding! He did surgery on each of my wrists - one I broke (and needed a plate to repair it) and the other I had arthritis and a ruptured tendon. Both surgeries went very well - wrists are 100%. Not only is Dr. Bernstein a skilled surgeon, he is caring, compassionate, and he listens. I highly recommend Dr. Bernstein!!

Hopefully you never need hand surgery, but if you do, don’t hesitate to see Dr. Bernstein. I met Dr. Bernstein about 20 years ago after my wife broke her wrist and required a plate. He talked us through the entire procedure, answered all of our questions. The surgery went well and just as importantly, the physical therapy that followed was equally well attended to. A few years later when I needed carpal tunnel surgery, I knew who to see. Again, process went smoothly with great results. Recently, I injured my thumb skiing, te... read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Richard A. Bernstein for approximately 7 months due to a carpel tunnel issue on my right hand. The Branford office personnel were very courteous and friendly. Dr. Bernstein performed the surgery in June, 2023 which went very well with very little discomfort after the surgery. There were pre-op visits for planning purposes as well as post-op visits to follow up on the recovery process. Each time I met with Dr. Bernstein, he greeted me warmly and made me feel very comfortable. I cannot praise him e... read more

Dr. Bernstein was very thorough in explaining my injury (wrist fracture) and the treatment. During treatment, he took extra care to protect my healing wrist while I was dealing with another injury. Dr. Bernstein is also very personable and took time to listen and answer my questions.

Dr Bernstein quickly diagnosed the issue and moved rapidly to get it repaired before it became more complicated. The entire Process from 2 weeks pre-surgery to 5 months post-surgery was outstanding.
