Saw this Dr when I was a teenager. He told my parents to put me in a place for depression. He misdiagnosed me I wind up having Lyme Disease. My parents wanted the best care for me and they didn't even take the insurance back than. A horrible Dr he should of been put in a mental ward. I would definitely not recommend him. Surprise he not retiree yet..keep looking there are more caring and compassionate Drs out there.

Dr. Berkowitz has been helping me deal with depression problems for quite some time. He is not only very wise but is also kind and understanding. When an emergency hospitalism was needed, he responded immediately to provide care.

Dr Berkowitz is a very kind and understanding physician. I couldn't find a doctor that would treat all my needs. I had to see 3 different doctors. 1 didn't take my insurance so I had to pay for each visit. The other one had me see her associate first so there was 2 copays. Dr Berkowitz was so kind and understanding, he has a high heart and he took care of all my needs so instead of 3 doctors I have only one. He didn't have to do what he did but because he did he's saving me over $300 per month.

I would NEVER recommend anyone to this doctor. He is a very rude man. It was my first time taking my client to him and I was shocked at how rude he was. Kept cutting both of us off, putting his hand up and would not allow her to really explain how she was feeling. Currently finding her someone else to go to. I'm appalled this man is even a doctor! Please think twice before seeing him.
