As far as Dr. Berman, after going in the office three times I've never even met the guy as he has the hygenist doing all of the work. During my first routine cleaning, the hygenist told me that I needed to come back and see the Periodontist because she noticed something suspect in my gums. I made an appointment and met with Dr. Leder who works in Dr. Berman's office. Without taking any X-rays, he looked at my mouth and told me that I needed surgery which would cost $600. He offered to perform the surgery on the spot and when I asked questions to get more detail he brought in one of the women from the front desk who told me "This is very common." I've never had any problems with my gums so I was suspicious and decided to get a second opinion. The new Periodontist that I went to said I definitely did not need surgery and said he was dissapointed that someone like Dr. Leder would put ethics aside to try and profit from unnecessary surgery. In conclusion - BEWARE of Dr. Berman and his staff

I know this doctor: 1 year
