Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Giving Props to someone who deserves it. A good Dr
My experience with Dr. Bernstein was amazing, he is not just a great Doctor he is also agreat person. Doctor visits are not something we look forward to for one reason or another and of cause when I visit him is because something is bothering me. But after the visit I feel much more secured in knowing that whatever it is can be fixed. He is very professional, intelligent, and he has a people personality. Does not rush you through your appointments. Alway when I leave my appointments, I feel better and much more relieved than I was before I got there.Thank you

Diagnosed with health related to WTC cleanup zone
I I am a new patient with Dr. Bernstein. I am a World Trade Center survivor and enrollee into the World Trade HealthCare Program. I was referred to Dr. Chaim Bernstein through the WTC Health Program. For years, I have been having problems breathing and periodic bouts with heavy mucous discharge from my lungs. Not until I became a patient and tested as well as properly diagnosed did I fully understand why I was having health problems related to exposure at WTC Exposure Zone form Sep 2001 to Jul 2002.I highly recommended using Dr. Bernstein he is respected, knowledgeable, diagnosis and will treat your health related problems

Office Visit
June 28, 2022 Dear Dr. Chaim Bernstein, It is with great pleasure to write this letter of support and thank you for the personal attention I received during my appointment with you on June 13, 2022. First, I must outright mention your professionalism and excellent listening skills. Also, it is obvious that you are a caring and dedicated individual. You interacted with me with even-temperance that combined tact with complete candor. I felt completely at ease in your company. In addition, what was quite amazing and truly beyond reproach was your retention of the facts and details of our follow-up conversations. Your hands-on philosophy and thoughtfulness enabled me to fully recuperate in no time at all. I am truly grateful. Patricia, your office manager, also deserves kudos as she was both sensitive and vigilant to my concerns. I extend to you my personal best wishes for good health and happiness. Best Regards, Harry S. Baumander 1740 Ocean Avenue Apt. L1A Brooklyn, NY 11230

I am so grateful that I found Dr Bernstein. I had a bad cough for a long time. I had seen numerous doctors and tried many different prescription drugs. Nothing was helping. Dr Bernstein he was able to diagnose me properly when no one else could. He prescribed the right treatment that finally helped me feel better.

Dr. Chaim Bernstein is an extremely knowledgeable and professional Doctor. He diagnosed me, prior to seeing any test rsults, that later proved his diagnoses to be 100% accurate. Ever since Doctor Bernstein started treating me a few months ago, my physical conditions have been showing significant improvements, and he has made my life much better. I'd strongly recommend him.
