Dr. Gregg J. Berdy's Online Review Report Card

I have tried for several days to get an appointment but no one answers the phone. I mean no one. No matter which option I choose on the phone. I have left several messages for a call back but still not response. I guess I'll be going elsewhere...

There is a wait to see Dr. Berdy, but it's worth it to receive the best care available. Dr. Berdy has (and is) saving my vision. I have several conditions he's treating that other physicians aren't qualified to treat.

Do not go to Dr Berdy. Rude doctor and rude office staff. Its just an assembly line and you wait wait for hours.

As all of these reviews suggest you will likely wait in the office to see Dr Berdy. That is the reason for 4 stars, but even with that I considered 5 stars because what he did for my daughter was worth every minute we waited to see him. My experience with him as a doctor though is that he is phenomenal. I assume the reason or wait was so long is because he took a much time as we needed to help us understand what was going on! My daughter has had 2 surgeries and been to the top 3 pediatric eye specialists. After 12 years none of them could figure out what was wrong. We were at the point of another surgery and sought out Dr Berdy at the suggestion of our optometrist. He figured it out immediately. Within weeks he symptoms were significantly improved after years of problems. She didn't have to have another surgery and she has not had problems with her eyes for 2 years!

I waited for three hours. Finally got to the back, and they bounced me around from one room to the next. He ignored my questions and was very arrogant .

Very uncomfortable atmosphere, 4 hour wait, and the doctor and nurses did not give me time to talk and explain what my issues were. The doctor jumped to conclusions within 10 minutes of the exam and prescribed me so many unnecessary medications and told me to buy it from them because it’s cheaper. I asked them how do they know it’s cheaper? My insurance ended up covering the whole medication. The ophthalmology associates wanted to make more money. I ended up stopping the medications because of side effects.

Decent enough doctor, but I’d recommend you shop around. He refuses to prescribe generic medications, and it is not unusual to spend 3-4 hours at an appointment, most of that time spent waiting to see the doctor. I felt like an object on an assembly line, as most of the interactions with medical personnel and staff were impersonal. I ended up finding another doctor, and received excellent card and treatment.

This doctors' office has multiple people signed up for the same appointment time, and herds them through their system at the speed of a glacier.

I have been going to Dr. Berdy for years as a contact lens patient. I recently called about a vision issue and was seen that day without an appointment. Dr. Berdy correctly diagnosed a rare condition and got me immediate treatment that saved me from total vision loss. He spent several hours with me, that made him late for other patients, I’m sure, but he was calm, reassuring and kind. He’s an excellent doctor!

All three appointments took 3-4 hours to complete for simple dry eye. The front desk receptionist at St. Peters was cold and abrupt to the point of rudeness at every visit. The last straw was when the office manager, Katie, refused to seek pre-approval for a medicine because THEY now sell it for three times my insurance cost. Katie didn't care that their office did this same approval the year before or the additional cost to this customer.
