Preparing for Surgery & Procedure
Once you and your Doctor decide that surgery will help you, you’ll need to learn what to expect from the surgery and create a treatment plan for the best results afterward. Preparing mentally and physically for surgery is an important step toward a successful result.

Dr. Berkman was able to diagnose my knee problem in minutes and suggested the proper course of action. After MRI was completed he suggested surgery for torn Meniscus. The surgery experience was great. Everyone associated withe Dr Berkman treated myself and my wife with kindness. After surgery they sent me home with all the proper instructions. Ten days later my knee is feeling 100% better. I would highly recommend Dr Berkman for any procedures.
