04/06/2021

I was asked to come in early - which I did. I was then asked why I was so early quite a few times which is not good. I completed all the paperwork that I was asked to - online - only to be told nothing they can do - but it is useless and I had to complete the paperwork again. I also was told I had to wait as "I am on break" when I had not even gone up to the front desk. If you are on break - leave the front window or put up a sign saying be back shortly. I feel I was treated like a bother not like a valued patient. I will not go back to the Rocky Hill office - I will wait longer for an appointment in the Bloomfield office. In the over 10 years we have seen Dr. Bissell and the past 3 with Dr Berkowitz I have never felt so put off like this day.

11/19/2020

I waited 30 minutes to be seen and then the conversation with the doctor was only 7 minutes. $40 Copay for that was very silly. I've been very happy with the Doctor I just think follow ups should be done cheaper and over the phone.

Dr. Berkowitz's assistant Emily and the other staff member (sorry I don't know her name) stayed with me and monitored me until I felt better. Thank you all so much.

12/10/2019

I was able to schedule surgery in the short time frame that I needed before year-end.

12/05/2019

Dr. Berkowitz was thorough in his explanation of my problem and the available treatment plans.

12/04/2019

Dr. Berkowitz, explained in detail about what to expect with the procedure and recovery.

11/29/2019

It was on time. It was professional.

11/25/2019

Every person from reception until leaving were both professional and caring.

11/25/2019

11/22/2019

Yes [highly satisfied], I was consulting with Dr. Berkowitz about a hand problem. He checked it out with x-rays and then by examination and found that it was a procedure that I would need. However, the procedure is optional. His information made me decide to not proceed presently and think more as to I really want to proceed. He was very helpful throughout.

11/22/2019

Got in on time. Received a complete explanation of the procedure, and answered all questions. It went quick, and painless, and everything went as advertised.

11/22/2019

Professional, courteous staff. Comfortable waiting room

11/20/2019

Everyone was very friendly and professional. I have no more pain.

11/18/2019

Quick Follow-up in amd out in 20 minutes.

11/15/2019

Got in on time, if not just a little earlier. Thorough explanation of what was happening, and going to happen.

11/14/2019

Dr. Berkowitz monitored my progress and advised me to continue to rest my left arm with the torn bicep tendons.

11/14/2019

Everyone is very nice. Clear instructions about what to expect.

11/12/2019

Discovered a fracture that was missed in original x-ray after a fall. [Single best thing is...] knowing why my arm was not healed.

11/08/2019

Dr. Berkowicz took his time and I wasn't rushed.

11/08/2019

I didn't have to wait long to be seen, and all of the people I dealt with were very polite. I felt they listened to me and responded to my concerns. [Single best thing is...] feeling I'm well cared for, as my wrist continues to heal under the supervision of the practice.

11/08/2019

The wait time to see the doctor was very short. Previous to my last visit I received a cortizone injection from Dr. Berkowitz for the tendinitus in my wrist. The pain was gone within a couple of days and I had full use of my hand again.

11/05/2019

Great practice

11/05/2019

I am always treated well. Fast and friendly desk people. Dr. Berkowitz and his PAs are a marvel. Explaining every step.

11/04/2019

It was good all around. Especially the woman who needed to make my follow-up appointment. She was very accomodating to my needs.

11/04/2019

Dr. Berkowitz pulls no punches. Tells it like it is. He is awesome. He said the shot would hurt, and it did, but the relief that came after was a blessing. I trust him to tell me the truth, and he does. [Single best thing is...] No more pain!

11/04/2019

Quick, efficient, good results. [Single best thing is...] no longer having constant pain in my wrist.

10/23/2019

Very long wait.

10/22/2019

Dr. is caring and informative. Quick scheduling for surgery.

10/22/2019

They took me in asap and were very specific as to what needs to be done. They were able to get me in surgery very quickly.

10/21/2019

Everyone (from office staff to the doctor) was very friendly and efficient.

10/19/2019

Dr. B saw me a month earlier and diagnosed my wrist pain. Provided cortisone and encouraged rest period with follow up. Very clear in instructions. It worked.

10/18/2019

I'm very pleased with my course of treatment and the end results. I'm no longer in severe pain.

10/18/2019

[Highly satisfied with] the staff and the doctor explaining everything. My wife worked for orthopedic doctors for 20 years, and even asked me a lot of questions that I could answer.

10/18/2019

I like Dr. Berkowitz a lot. He's straightforward and gave me my choices then let me decide. Exactly what a good doctor does. If I need further care I will return to see him. Pain was greatly diminished.

09/04/2019

Diagnosis explained very well. Solutions explained and I could choose the one I wanted.

09/03/2019

The entire staff is very efficient and friendly.

09/02/2019

This was a follow up on the procedure that was done on my right hand. I am happy that I have so much more use with this hand and can actually hold a pen and write.

09/01/2019

Doctor Berkowitz and his team were ready for me. No long wait. They did x-rays promptly and my situation was well and completely explained. Not the result I had hoped for but still a very caring, thoughtful, well-handled visit. Second surgery is required and that's not what I had expected. Follow up phone call to arrange for immediate PT appt was helpful, as we'd spent time looking at my x-rays and discussing second surgery. I was seen quickly. Surgery pre-booked as it was typically called for and the whole process was handled very efficiently and with genuine care.

09/01/2019

Doctor let me know what my limitations would be in addition to progress made and expected.

09/01/2019

Dr. Berkowitz always explains what he is looking for and offers suggestions to get you to the optimal usage of your hand/wrist.

08/31/2019

The staff were very kind and knowledgeable concerning the pain I am having in my hand.

08/30/2019

Quick in and out appointment

08/13/2019

Was seen quickly, appointment was thorough but quick, addressed any concerns I had. Procedure I was following up on really helped the condition it was supposed to.

08/13/2019

It was a pleasure being seen by Dr. Berkowitz. He answered all my questions, with my memory I'll probably have to ask again. Enjoyed his sense of humor, told him I wasn't going to watch when he put a needle in my hand, his reply "not to worry he would watch everything." [Single best thing is...] When I first went in to see Dr. Berkowitz I was in so much pain with my right hand it was very difficult to do anything. Now after the needle procedure the severe pain is gone and have much more use of my hand.

08/09/2019

Very pleased with meeting with Dr. Berkowitz and Mary Jane about upcoming surgery. Explained what was going to happen and put me at ease.

08/09/2019

Got the staples out of my arm and was given clear instructions for the next steps for my recovery.

08/09/2019

The Dr. explained everything and I was very satisfied and comfortable. I understand if the cortisone injection doesn't work the next step will be minor day surgery. The explanation was very informative. [Single best thing is...] My finger feels 80% better.

08/09/2019

Just the overall detail and specific avenues that may be taken for the best possible outcome.

07/21/2019

Good staff and doctor

07/01/2019

Everyone knew what they were doing and executed their job professionally.

07/01/2019

He did a great job surgically fixing the problem I had with my arm. [Single best thing is...] I'm beginning to get stronger and able to do tasks I couldn't do before.

06/27/2019

The wait to see the PA, Mary Jane was not long at all. I've known her through 2 surgeons, Dr. Aron and now Dr. Berkowitz. She's a lovely person and had the stitches from carpal tunnel surgery out quickly and was no pain. Dr. B came in shortly after and did quick exam and made sure I knew what to do and expect the next few weeks. I am highly satisfied. [Single best thing is...] Procedure was quick. All hospital staff was friendly, knowledgeable and efficient.

06/23/2019

Office feels like home, we have been here so often, we are very comfortable there. [Single best thing is...] Glad the cortisone worked so far.

06/15/2019

Very attentive. [Single best thing is...] Attention to detail and discussion.

06/11/2019

Your office shows a high level of professionalism but everyone is also friendly and easy to interact with. A great combination. I was taken more or less on time, unlike many doctor's offices I visit. Dr. Berkowitz was very knowledgeable, informed, clear, direct and showed a little humor.

06/11/2019

The facility was clean, the reception was warm and friendly, everyone greeted me and told me their name, this was my first visit to Advance Orthopedics, Dr. Berkowitz was amazing. He's a great listener and then explained to me in caring detail the issue I was experiencing. He then clearly explained the options I could choose to correct my trigger finger issue. Great professional and friendly facility. I would recommend Dr. Berkowitz and this facility to my family and friends. Thank you.

12/07/2018

Everyone was extremely knowledgeable and caring. This outstanding patient experience started when I booked the appointment over the phone, and carried though all the way to me leaving the appointment.

I could not be more pleased with every aspect of my surgery following a major break of both my radius and ulna. I believe Dr. Berkowitz took the time and care during surgery to provide me with a good start on recovering the function in my hand and wrist. I also appreciate his use of the "SpongeBob" foam tower for post-op use to maintain elevation, as it allows me to sleep without discomfort or concern that my arm will fall out of an elevated position during sleep. My post-op office visits have been positive and very helpful, as Dr. B patiently answers all questions and gives excellent explanations of all that I want to understand in order to do my best to bring about maximum recovery. My husband and I have also been very impressed with his office staff, as everyone in the office is caring, positive and skilled in everything they do. I am grateful for such highly skilled and kind professionalism during such a difficult and painful experience.

06/07/2018

03/27/2018

The staff is extremely friendly and easy going. They make you very comfortable during each visit!

Dr. Berkowicz made informed decisions and treated Kamrin with respect, showed him the x-ray, explained to his Grandma where the breaks were and what treatment was to be used.

I have been to both the Hartford and Enfield offices and have found all the staff to be very professional and helpful. I have had an unfortunate experience with health issues in the past 2 years, seeking help from Drs. Kimmel, Kruger, and Berkowitz.
