Like others who have reviewed Dr Berkson on this site, I was experiencing major health issues that lead me to make an appointment at his office. He was not reasonably priced; the cost of the first consult (he didn't accept my insurance, and I live in Las Cruces) was more than my monthly mortgage payment. But as a young family, we saved up because I was miserable with gut and candida issues, thrush, deep fissures on my hands, etc and couldn't find help in any other doctor's office, eg dermatologist, ob/gyn, gasterenterologist. He spent the first 15 or more minutes of the consult telling me about his medical accomplishments and barely got to asking about my issues at the end. He also told me the consult included the time he spent looking at my intake papers before visiting with me. The bill, even though he talked about himself most of the time, was more than the original quote because they charged for minutes over the allotted consult time. I did purchase some vitamins, but none of it helped. To this day, our family calls him the "vitamin doctor", because it was such a sham for us. He may help others, but just hurt our bottom line. We still strongly use integrative medical approaches in our health care, but we use the visit with Dr Berkson as a hard lesson learned to choose medical providers who don't seem to be selling the same type of practice model.
