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.

I took my mom who just moved to Toms River to see Dr. Berger. He wanted her to have a stress test and suggested shock treatment. She refused both as she has extreme anxiety. The doctor may have been frustrated, but was very rude. He said he couldn’t help her if she didn’t help herself which is true, but he then dismissed her with “You can leave now. I have to finish my paperwork”. During the visit he told her she wasn’t listening to him. He spent more time typing and watching his computer screen. He was short and dismissive. Neither my mom nor I were rude to him. We were quiet and polite. This was our third visit. He has interacted with us in a similar way each time so I can’t attribute the attitude to his having a bad day.
