Harold A Bernstein's Online Review Report Card

He explains the problem and explains the method of treatment that is needed, and where is will be done and what to expect and how to prepare for it.

I have been seeing Dr. Bernstein for about eight years, but enough is enough. On my last appointment I was in the office exactly two hours, 67.5% of which was waiting, 17 minutes just to be seen, and 64 minutes after the exam waiting for a 10-minute audience with his highness to go over the exam. At the two-hour mark, I left, because my time is just as important to me, if not more important, than Dr. Bernstein’s time is to him. For one hour and four minutes I was kept waiting in a room with five other patients, all but one in the high risk for coronavirus category. In the current environment, this is totally unsafe and unacceptable. Dr. Bernstein needs to take fewer patients per day so we are not stacked up on top of each other in a waiting room for an hour. But of course, that means less income, and we all have our priorities. This was not the first time I left without seeing him due to a long wait, but you can bet it will be my last.

My mother had to see this doctor for an operation for a cataract. Not only did they send her home without the necessary drops so she could remove the patch, (meaning she was effectively blind because she can’t see out of the other eye). when we returned the following day for the checkup, they left her sitting in the waiting room for almost 3 hours. It was like they completely forgot her. I would not recommend this practice.

Dr Harold Bernstein has been my ophthalmologist for 17 year long He is on top of latest medicine and treatment of eye disorders. His staff is the best trying to make sure you are comfortable and everything is at right level for testing. He is caring and concerned about his patients and keeping them in the right glasses or contacts with follow ups and yearly reminders. If he notices anything beyond his specialty he will help refer you to doctor who deals with your experiencing.

Dr Bernstein is a wonderful,caring, educated doctor. He has been my Glaucoma doctor for 14 years. He has preformed numerous surgery’s on my eyes. I have all the trust in the world with him.

I have been going to Richmond Eye Associates for over 9 years now. I find everybody exceptionally upbeat and friendly. My wait times have never been long at all. When it comes to my vision, i will stay as long as needed. You only get one set. Dr. Bernstein is the specialist that i will see for my condition!!

He is one of the most caring Doctors you could see.. He takes time to explain and listen to your concerns... Very warm and always greets you with a warm smile and handshake. His nurses Pam and Amy are wonderful - His front staff could be a little more patient friendly.

Extremely good doctor and staff. Very knowledgeable, explains options, very caring. I'm diabetic and he is on top of my eye care. Would highly recommend.

I have been seen by Dr. Bernstein for glaucoma for many years. He is knowledgeable, thoughtful, professional. I would recommend him fully. He is a skilled surgeon, also, as my husband found when he had eye surgery several years ago. I would not consider going anywhere else for my eyes.
