I have known Dr. Rakhmanchik approximately ten years. When I had good health and few complaints, I…read morefound him to be an excellent doctor. He is charismatic, pleasant, knowledgeable, obviously has a lot of experience under his belt, helpful, practical, and on the same wave length agreeing with me that the less medication, the better. But as soon as I had something of a serious nature for the first time in my life, he for some reason is not able to accept my complaints as valid. And he breaks one of the rules of doctoring which is to believe the patient's complaints! He has actually for the past seven months been denying that what I describe as my symptoms are happening! This is the logical extension of his sunny disposition. I remember now that he has often been that way. I once told him that after wearing a heart monitor for 13 days, the result was first degree heart block. He said, "Oh, that's nothing!" My stepdaughter told him he had a spot on her lung of 0.5 centimeter. He said, "Oh, that's nothing!" And I remember how in past years, I always leave his office feeling better than when I came. But the day came seven months when I presented with a serious condition, and he has persisted and persisted since in saying, "Oh, that's nothing. It's all in your mind." (He has actually told me that the main thing wrong with me is my mind. I learned that that is called "gaslighting.") And I know that isn't true, and I know he is wrong. And if this same thing happens to you, you should be apprised that that is the day you must make a decision--whether to continue to put yourself in danger or to part ways.

Doctor Bernstein will not recommend prescription medicine/drugs if you do not need it which is not only good for the body bit good for the wallet. He is also very accommodating if there is an emergency or a request and we need to speak on the phone. If you need to see him in person, then yes you will need an appointment. I have never had to come in because of an emergency so I honestly do not know how he handles emergency visits He will always be my doctor and I always refer him.

BUT she took a note for the doctor about my symptoms and said he would call back. He phoned that night, kindly listened to me and said to call back the next morning and they'd fit me in. I called, the kind staffer fit me in the late afternoon and kindly called back to tell me of an earlier cancellation. Seeing Dr. Bernstein was a dream. He sat me down and asked real questions about my life, my family, etc... He really listened. He examined me and gave me sage and funny medical advice. What a wonderful Dr. I grew up with old school docs that were friends of the family for years in IL, they've long retired, or sadly passed -- but Dr. Bernstein is definitely a kind old-school doctor. Highly, highly recommended

And for the record I was not the only patient she spoke to like this. So my advice is try to avoid staff as much as possible!

Although we expect our doctors to be honest, we still expect professionalism! Wow -- BMI 41 Your BMI puts you in the OBESE category. I do not do tummy tucks on people whose BMI is above 30. A breast reduction may be appropriate, but not sure a tummy tuck will help you. You need to get on a diet and loose a lot of weight before I would ever touch your stomach. Usually people whose BMIs are over 40 can be candidates for some form of gastic weight loss surgery too. Another one of his postings... Ha Ha Your BMI is 40, which makes you obese --- if you go on a diet, I bet your tummy will be flatter. Lipo may help --- but it will be a drop in the bucket. As you can see this is RUDE!

Once he is in the office with you he takes his time to answer all your questions and make sure you are completely informed of your health. Any reservations or concerns I have when I walk in are addressed completely by the time I walk out of his office doors. Not only that but he also has several specialists that come into the office throughout the week to accommodate your schedule. His staff for the most part is very helpful and friendly, and even offers an on site lab to help expedite your care. The only reason I only gave four stars is because of the wait time in the office.

Really recommend to not come here. The first issue is communication. It is nearly impossible to reach a live person. Most calls end up at a recording directing patients to the website, and the only reliable way I've found to get someone on the phone is sometimes through the billing office. For example i just tried to call twice because they mixed up my medication. It's 10:45am EST... full business working hours... and their answering machine said they will get back to me within 1 business day. The second issue is continuity of care. The office now seems to function as a revolving door of students and trainees. While I fully support medical education, it becomes frustrating when a different person handles every appointment and you have to repeat your entire medical history from scratch. Even more concerning, my patient information often appears to be incomplete or inaccurate despite multiple prior visits - again just this week completely mixed up dosages of medications I've been on for years, should clearly be on my sheet? On more than one occasion, I have received recommendations that seemed far more extreme than warranted for the issue being discussed. Follow-up is frequently promised but rarely happens. Never once getting a follow up call on outcome of test results. The biggest problem has been prescription management. I have been on the same medication for years and needed a routine refill. The prescription was not sent, which is something that has happened now multiple times. When I finally reached someone by phone, they proceeded to ask me (the patient) which medication and dosage I take because my chart apparently did not contain that information. Thankfully i obviously know what i take - but that should be confirmed and monitored by the doctor - after all that they sent in the wrong dosage to the pharmacy and doubled my daily medication. The lack of communication, poor recordkeeping, missed prescription requests, and inconsistent follow-up have made this practice difficult to trust with ongoing medical care.

She had me describe what had happened prior to the pains and asked very specific questions on certain details, and was able to figure out what was wrong. I really liked her!
