Awesome doctor! He did my left knee and very compassionate and cares about you! PT didn’t like I wasn’t progressing enough but Dr Bernard told me I was doing good and just keep up with the therapy! I had to worker harder than the norm because of my RA. It payed off and more than likely will have him do my right knee.

Dr. Bernard is the only doctor I will let do my remaining knee replacement. I was driving to my physical therapy appointments 2 weeks after my first surgery. He’s the bees knees-lol.

Dr. Bernard is amazing! He is thorough, personable, and makes sure you feel comfortable with all your decisions. Tomorrow I am two weeks into post bilateral knee repacked surgery. I am walking with my hiking stick. I left the hospital day of surgery.

I appreciate Dr Bernard. I’m overweight and he’s addressed it professionally but still willing to help me. He’s got a big heart and always upbeat.

Just had my first visit with him yesterday. He was friendly, caring and knowledgable. I only had no wait about 5 minutes. I received cortisone injections for osteoarthritis. I would definitely recommend Dr. Bernard.

Dr Bernard took care of my problem with my knee pain and made me feel comfortable not nervous like you get going to a new Dr. My pain is gone and thanks Dr Bernard and the whole staff at the office.

Had knee looked at as I couldn’t hardly walk or get around. He gave me a shot and it feels good now. He did 2 hip surgeries on my wife- very thoughtful and caring. Told us he would treat her as he would his mother, and he did! Excellent doctor!!!

I have been treated by Dr Bernard for several years. He is a brilliant, caring surgeon who despite being so gifted and successful possesses a humility that is incredible. Dr Bernard displays a passion for life and health and infuses it into his patients. I thank God for Dr Bernard.

Dr Bernard was totally unprofessional on my first visit. He was rude and cruel. He took his anger at somebody else out on me as he stated that he would never work on an overweight person.
