Not sure what to say?

Dr. Berk was my doctor for over ten years. He was the most wonderful doctor and human being. I was a 18 years old at my first appointment and spoke so highly of him that my mom and sister soon became his patients too. He was kind, compassionate and incredibly knowledgeable. He held my hand through some very tough times. I still think about his humor and expertise and have always, since that first appointment, looked for a bit of Dr. Berk in every physician.

I remember Dr. Berk fondly. He was my doctor for 10 years, and was the first dr who EVER showed kindness, empathy and compassion for me as a patient, always taking my hand to put me at ease and sharing a story or two. I now look for that feeling of warmth from drs that he always left me with. He will be forever missed

Dr Berk delivered my first child Claudia in January 2000. I remember I was so scared and he sat on my bed and gave me a foot rub to calm me down! He was a beautiful man and my husband and I will be forever thankful to him.

Dr Berk was my doctor 40 years ago when I lived in New York. He was wonderful. He will be missed dearly.

I was dr. Beck's patient for 30 years. I agree with all the beautiful expressions of love here. He was a magnificent doctor and person. I think of him often and he is sorely missed. My condolences to his family.
He treated me always with kindness and concern. I can never forget his humor, expertise, and his whimsical office that I always enjoyed.

A date never to be forgotten. March 27th 2009

So sorry to hear of Doctor Berks passing.
I knew the large practice was no more, but did not realize why exactly.
He always cared with a warmth and a smile. He got me through some very difficult pregnancies and delivered three of my six children. He actually saved my life on more than one occasion.
He is thought of very fondly and will always be a part of my life.
May his family be comforted to know he meant alot to all of his patients and an exemplary...
