About this business

The most important aspect of treating disorders of the hand and upper extremity is making an accurate diagnosis and then instituting the most conservative, least invasive and effective treatment algorithm. Most patients I see do NOT require surgery and can be cured with simple measures. I employ a team of nurses and cetified hand therapists all of whom share the goal of obtaining the best outcome we can, and returning our patients to work and play effectively and quickly

I have seen other doctors (for different reasons) in this group and was a little less than impressed. This doctor was great. He listened to what I had to say and explained things easily to me. He seemed sincerely concerned and very knowledgeable.

After falling at home and fracturing my wrist I called Dr. Bernstein’s office on a Friday and was pleased to receive an appointment for 8:15 am on Monday morning.

I went to Dr. Bernstein for carpal tunnel surgery. I had surgeries performed on both hands at separate times. Both surgeries went better than I had expected, with minimal pain and a great recovery. Dr. Bernstein and his staff were very professional and friendly. I would highly recommend Dr. Bernstein for anyone.

Dr. Bernstein is a wonderful doctor. He performed carpal tunnel surgery for me with excellent results. He thoroughly investigated the extent of the nerve damage before surgery and mine was severe. He was very caring during and after surgery. I am very pleased with the end results. Dr. Bernstein is a great hand surgeon and I highly recommend him.

He is a very thorough orthopedic surgeon, professional, and a wonderful human being. I sought his help at a very challenging time during my wrist fracture but he made my life much easier and patiently dealt with my injury with much care, understanding, and respect. I wish him and his amazing staff much success, prosperity and health.

I have been seeing Dr. Bernstein since 2016 for bilateral carpal tunnel syndrome and for trigger finger and a cyst on my right hand. Dr. Bernstein explains every procedure thoroughly before doing it, whether it an in office procedure or surgery. After each of my surgeries he called at the end of the day to see how I was. He has incredible bedside manner and genuinely cares about his patients.
