Basil Bernstein M.D.

Dr. Basil Bernstein was the finest doctor I ever had. He was incredibly warm, unlike so many others in the profession who puff themselves up as if they are gods.On one occasion I was very hungry after a tap dance class, and after nearly falling asleep on his famous couch in the waiting room that kind of sucked you into another dimension, it was my turn to be seen. Dr. Bernstein offered me a bagel and juice Iappreciated very much! When my husband accepted a job in 1989 in Chicago, Dr...

I JUST FOUND OUT ABOUT DR. BERNSTEIN. BASIL WAS MUCH MORE THAN A DOCTOR. HE WAS A COMPASSIONATE COMFORTER, AND FRIEND. I'VE HAD NUMEROUS DOCTORS, I'M A DISABLED VIETNAM VETERAN. I'VE NOT MET ANY DOCTOR AS DEDICATED TO HIS PATIENTS BASIL. I CONSIDER MYSELF TRULY BLESSED AND HONORED TO HAVE KNOWN HIM. I BELIEVE EVERYONE THAT WAS A PART OF HIS LIFE ARE BETTER PEOPLE BECAUSE OF HIS PRESENTS. I WILL MISS HIM EMINENCELY. LOVE YOU DR. B.

Basil was one of my dearest friends. May his memory be a blessing to all. Regards, Elizabeth Vann

Basil, you had the true spirit of the good physician: a listening ear, attention to detail, observant, kind, compassionate and loving. You put patient first and the solution to their problem foremost in your priorities. God Bless your soul and comfort your family. So glad to have known you! David Melville, M.D.

Truely heart broken for everyones loss. This man took amazing care of me and my family for the last 15 years. I considered him a dear friend and my doctor. He helped his patients until the very end, When he could have retired decades ago. Condolences to his family

Dr. B I can´t believe you are gone. To say you were loved and adored by all who knew you is understatement. I had been under your care for years and years and what you have meant to me is beyond measure. You saved my life Dr. Bernstein. I was on a bad path and thanks to you and your care about people no matter their history or circumstance, changed my life´s trajectory for the better. You weren´t just a doctor you were a friend who genuinely and absolutely cared about each one of his...

Dr. Bernstein has been my doctor for the last 18 years. I am truly heartbroken to find out he passed away. He was kind, cheerful and soft spoken. We talked on a personal level and he always complemented me on my family and their accomplishments. I considered him my friend and I am truly going to miss him. Prayers for his family and friends.

Dr. B was a wonderful person and he took care of me and my family for many years. He was a great person and friend to all. Prayers for his family.

Dr. Bernstein was my PCP for almost 15 years. The moment I first sat and met with him I knew he was going to be my doctor. Over the years we got to know each other on a personal level and shared many many laughs over the years. He would always ask about my kids; my wife and I had twins back in 2018 and he was always excited to see pictures over these years as they've grown. He offered parenting advice that was real and from the heart, advice that I still, and will always, carry with me. He...
