Dr. Berdis demonstrated a high level of clinical expertise and professionalism throughout my care. He took the time to clearly explain my condition, surgical approach, and expected outcomes, and I felt included in the decision-making process. His communication was thorough and helped build confidence moving forward with treatment.My surgical experience was well-coordinated, and I appreciate the care provided during that phase. My recovery has been more complex and has required ongoing coordination across multiple aspects of care. During this time, I remained actively engaged in my care and advocacy. When directly involved, Dr. Berdis was attentive and responsive, which was meaningful during a challenging recovery process.

Dr Berdis tells you the possible needed procedures and does not hold back. He can be trusted to begin an operation and know just how far to go and no more than needed. He went beyond expectations by visiting me daily while in the hospital and helped coordinate his appointments with the infectious disease specialist off campus.
