Highly experienced and able to handle atypical cases readily. Straight-talking. Answers questions. Nice guy.
He just walked in the room, sat down and looked at the computer and really did not say much to me at all regarding all the tests I had over the previous two hours. He did say, 'no change' which was good in guess.
He's outstanding!
He is very good as an eye doctor, but does not talk very much.
He was very busy yesterday but he was willing to let me call my son and let my son listen in on our conversation which was very kind of him. I appreciate him making the time for that and to explain to me the procedure for my eyes!

HE is the best of the best. If not for Dr. Bernstine, I would be blind in one eye!
I am beside myself with joy. 90 years old and the first time I have been able to see well out of my left eye in my life. I have always worn glasses or contacts, but after cataract surgery 6 years ago I couldn't see much out of my left eye at all. I pretty much just gave up because I wasn't happy with the surgeon (another institution). Just recently I went to the eye clinic at the U and was advised to have laser. The next day after the laser I was able to see the mountains and trees clearly without glasses or contacts. Wish I had gone to the U of U retina specialist much sooner. Dr. Bernstein and his assistant are the best.
He is fabulous. I'm so grateful for him.
He is an excellent retenologist.
He knows what he's doing. He is a very good doctor

I'm grateful to him!
Dr. Bernstein takes time to explain complicated issues, and answers all of my numerous questions with patience and understanding. I trust my care will be the best with his knowledge and skill.
He is exceptional. We are fortunate to have him and the entire staff in our area.
Needed to explain what the tests showed my condition was
I had laser surgery many years after I had cataracts removed from my left eye. I could not see anything and did not want to go back to my original doctor. Finallty, I went for an eye test at the U and was told I should see a retinal specialist. I went to see Paul Bernstein and he suggested laser. I had it done that same day and the next day I could see out of my left eye for the first time in years. I can hardly contain myself I am so happy! I am 90 years old and thought for sure my eyesight was never going to be any better. If you are having problems I sincerely suggest you should see Dr. Bernstein and his crew and the University of Utah Eye Clinic
I have been a patient of Dr Bernstein's for many years and have always felt very lucky to be in his care. He is very knowledgeable and makes sure I have received an extremely high level of care.
Dr. Bernstein was a very good doctor, and I feel wishes the best for all of his patience. He has always been very good to me and listen to me and my concerns. I do feel however that he is very overbooked. I believe him to be one of the very best in his field of expertise.
Excellent, clear, included me in discussion of my health and options, conservative and careful, listens to me. He let me know ahead what will happen, rather than have issues/surprises once I get home (unlike so many other doctors, PAs etc), A very successful surgery performed on my eye. I am so grateful, thank you.
Dr Bernstein is a quiet, thoughtful and dedicated physician. I have trusted him with my care for over 10 years.
Although I'm a neurophysiologist and understood what was gooing on, Dr. Bernstein seemed curt, didn't explain the prognosis, did nothing to allay my fears, or give me information about resources for the low vission community. Although the level of the studies conducted was excellent, I needed much more information from him. It seemed lik there were too many patients in the queue to be seen. c
Great! Very busy but very thorough!
Great with my eye issues.
He is a doctor with a lot of experience in the study of eyes. [TRANSLATED]

Dr Bernstein is the absolute best! I trust him completely with my eye injections. He is responsible for preserving my eyesight for 15 years. He is my hero!

He was polite and seemed to know what he was doing.
We traveled 5 hours from home to see the Moran Institute due to it being a top tier rated facility, but the experience we received was disappointing. I would expect for this facility to be more informed on latest research. My top 3 disappointments: First, there is a stem cell trial to treat GA going on in the U.S. that Dr. Bernstein didn't know about and seemed uninterested in, even though I presented information in my MyChart about it months before the appointment. Second, prior inconclusive testing led to him to changing his original diagnosis, and it wasn't until I asked about further testing that he shared the availability of it. I was then able to get that testing done same day and those technicians were great. Third, Dr. Bernstein was very insensitive to my feelings and what I'm going through. He didn't explain much or give any comfort. This visit set me back mentally and created a worse situation for myself and my family, and will be exploring other specialists closer to home.
Always respectful and professional. I trust him.
Dr. Bernstein is the best
Very concerned and helpful. will recommend others to see him
For eye care, be sure to make an appointment with and have your necessary care provided by this expert. Beyond capable. Very congenial and welcoming. You will understand and be well taken care of.
None
Asked me about how I was. I told him I was concerned about wait and lack of communication to the patient in the clinic. And asked whether a shift if management of the clinic was responsible for loss of providers and excessive wait for the appointment, and who I might contact. He answered none of those non-medical questions. Fine with respect to examination and care.
Dr. Berstein is that rare doctor/surgeon that is highly skilled, professional, kind and thorough. My husband and I thank him for his utmost care during my surgical procedures. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Bernstein to my family, friends and colleagues should they have need.

In the 5 to 10 minutes that I saw him, Dr. Bernstein seemed more interested in his research project than me, his new patient.
Very professional and caring
He's extremely busy, never has time to discuss things. He's only there when he's ready to give me the shot. When I'm under being prepped and I'm in a lot of pain because of the betadine in my eye and I'm absolutely not able to discuss anything with him. I wish he would come before the prepping for just one or two minutes and discuss about questions and explain has there been any progress or not. Etc.

Very personable and explained options and explanations of any and all questions I had.
I thought he would look much older given how much he has accomplished in his life. He was amazing. A great listener and answered all my questions with competence.
Dr. Bernstein is a man of few words - never get a detailed explanation on almost anything. Always reluctant to give you details on your condition. Spends little time answering questions.
It's great to be treated by an expert. I have full confidence that I'm receiving the best possible care.
Dr Bernstein is so informed and skilled. He provides a stellar service to his staff and patients.

Very caring
Great at explanations about the variance in 2 vaccines.
I am grateful for Dr. Bernstein and his staff. I always feel they are giving me the best of care.
Very impersonal
Dr. Bernstein seems to be very knowledgeable about AMD and Stargardts. I am hopeful that we can find some kind of trial that will be helpful to slow the progression of either of these severe diseases.
The waiting room was packed. Everyone had a very long wait. The reason-he also scheduled a lecture at the same time he was supposed to be seeing patients. I waited 3 hours and never did see him.
He is Very Professional and he Goldenl Love my visits there?
Great care and professional
Dr Bernstein is the absolute BEST!! I trust him completely. He is very knowledgeable and caring.
Dr Bernstien has the professionalism and you know you're in good hands just being around him the way he explains the situation the gentleness he takes to give one patient a shot in the eye is very unsettling but he makes it very comfortable and his staff is fantastic. it just seems like they're there, and you are the only patient they take that good care of you. Keep up the good work and thanks again Dr Bernstien and staff.

I've been seeing Dr. Bernstein regularly for the past year and he's knowledgeable and always kind and patient.
He was very kind, explained my diagnosis and the path moving forward ! I was very impressed with his manner and knowledge! It was a very positive appointment!
I wish that he was more engaged and interested in me as a person. He always seems very rushed, with no time to be even slightly friendly or to ask how my vision loss is going.
Dr.Bernstein is caring for my problem in a very good way , which I'm very happy with. B
Dear Dr. Paul S Bernstein, MD Thank you from the bottom of my heart for my retina detachment emergency surgery. You and the other doctors acted upon so fast to perform my emergency surgery after finding out about my Retina detachment that morning during my visit for my ESCLERA that got healed after eight weeks of treatment from 2/20/24-4/25/24. Again thank you for acting up fast enough without hesitation to perform the Retina surgery. Forever grateful to you and your Young Dr assistant during my surgery. Gracias!
Explained the procedure and followed up with explaining the surgical outcome.
Dr. Bernstein made me feel comfortable and confident that I was in good hands from the moment he entered the room and introduced himself. He listed to me and explained everything so I really didn't have any questions. I never felt rushed. I actually enjoyed going to see him.
He is a very good eye doctor.
I highly recommend Moran and the help I received!
Dr Bernstein is the best. I owe my sight to him.
Excellent care. The procedure was explained in a way that I could understand.
Dr. Bernstein took my case when other specialists said the damage to my vision was permanent and I must learn to live with it. With his continued treatment, the macular edema in both my eyes has resolved. I am beyond grateful that he continued my treatment and did so with utter confidence my vision would be restored. He not only treated my physical problem, he treated me with respect and the assurance my quality of life mattered. He is a hero in my book.
Great diagnostic skills. Ruled out potential causes.
He takes a great deal of care making sure that my macular degeneration is being treated properly.
We trust him a lot
Dr Bernstein is amazing. I feel genuinely blessed to have him as my surgeon, both in the operating room and all the follow up visits. World-class care. The rating system provided in this survey doesn't provide high enough marks for him.
Efficient and informative
Dr Bernstein is amazing, kind and such a wonderful doctor.
He is the best on the immaculate, degenerative eye condition. If it's going to be a cure, Dr Bernstien will find it.

He explains the procedures very well so I understood what to expect, especially with regards to the post-op care.
Dr. Bernstein is a very good doctor. I appreciate his ability and caring.
Dr. Bernstein is not personable and makes you feel like you are just another patient for the day. He has poor bedside manner, is not friendly, and is rude. He makes rude comments, doesn't like to answer questions, and makes assumptions. I left feeling very upset about my appointment.
He is extremely adept in his field of practice and his techniques are far above anything I've experienced from other physicians. Thank you Dr. Bernstein
Doctor Bernstein was great, and I would recommend him to anyone needing similar eye treatment to mine.
One of the finest Doctors I have ever known. Moran is fortunate to have him. I have been under his care for over five years.
Excellent doctor
Dr Bernstein is a wonderful doctor who makes difficult days as comfortable as possible
Thank you Dr Bernstien I feel my site is getting better
Dr. Bernstein is a man of few words - would like more interaction to increase my understanding of what specifically is going on with my eyes - such as what is wrong with eyes? What caused or contributed to this condition? What can be done to improve the condition? What are the long term ramifications or risks of the condition?
Outstanding patient care in every sense of the phrase. I've felt as though I'm Dr. Bernstein's only patient with his complete & undivided attention.
Dr Bernstein is outstanding. He gave me a thorough, very understandable description of what my issue is, and what he would do to fix it. In the areas where I had choices and needed to make a decision, Dr. Bernstein provided all the information I needed to make an informed decision, and presented it in a way that was clear and easy to understand. He is extremely easy to talk to, and made me feel I was his only patient. Having total confidence in your caregiver is important and Dr Bernstein gives you total confidence in him. Also, he treats everyone working with him as a teammate. That came across very strongly.
Dr. Bernstein's knowledge and experience resonate down through the entire clinic and the professionalism demonstrated. Thank you, Dr. Bernstein, for your passion for excellence.
Dr Bernstein is very good as a eye Doctor.
Very confident in his skill and expertise.

Following a detached retina in 2020 Dr Bernstein and his staff over the next 2 1/2 years restored my eyesight to 20/50 which is much better than being blind in one eye. I will always be thankful to Dr Bernstein and the Moran Eye Center.
he is knowledgeable and takes care explaining diagnosis and procedures.
Jaime, was the best she went over and beyond to make sure everything was clean and sterile throughout the whole visit. She took very good care of me.

Excellent physician
it took me far too long to get an appointment. I know you are busy but I had urgent concerns with my eye. I waited 4 months
As the complications happened during my surgery he stepped in and completed a very complicated procedure which was required. He took time to do some extra procedures that he founded needed to be performed without even hesitating. During post op he explained that beything throughly. Love Dr Bernstein.

Es un excelente y profesional doctor
Like I said, Ive been to over six doctors and they could not figure out what was wrong with my eyes and this doctor took the time to understand my eyes. He knew exactly what was going on and it was nice to hear what the response was. Thank you, Paul Bernstein.
Excellent
I was told previously that there was no treatment. Dr Bernstein explained that there was no reason that he would not get less than a 100% resolution of the problem. He gave me confidence that he could do the job even after explaining all the risks. Absolutely the best!
He has got to be the best knowledgeable about retina eyecare
Very experienced in his field. My case is complicated, but he listens patiently to my concerns. I would not want another doctor...have total respect for Dr. Bernstein.
Dr. Bernstein has taken care of me for over 20 years. He has done a great job checking me for detached retinas and did successful surgery when needed.
Dr. Bernstein has been wonderful. I have very complex eye issues and know I can trust him to do what is on my best interest. He is very thorough and lets me ask questions and help me understand my issues and what my options are.
Very satisfied.
He remedied a problem that Id had for a number of years. Im very grateful. My life will be better as a result of his work.
The best!!!
Calm and an excellent professional. Compassionate and attention to detail are extremely good. He made me fill calm and less anxious before and after the procedure. I will always recommend him.
Dr. Bernstein did a wonderful job during a previous visit to complete a cryo procedure on my right eye. This follow-up confirmed that the process was successful and with little issues. During this visit, extra care was given to me because I was recovering from cancer surgery and was in a full locked leg brace. He and his staff were very patient and accommodating while working around my leg issue. I would highly recommend Dr. Bernstein.
He is obviously one of the best in his field
Dr. Bernstein is exceptional and the Morin Eye Center is lucky to have him. He's the very BEST!
WOW! He really knows what he is doing. Very impressive.
A wonderful and knowledgeable doctor
Dr Bernstein has preserved my vision for a very long time. Very thorough and caring.
Dr Bernsteins office was kind and helpful
Im very grateful for Dr Bernstein, his knowledge, experience and professionalism.
Wonderful doctor, friend and informative.
He is best and we feel blessed he was able do my surgery
Very up to date
His expertise in his field is obvious and welcome. He has taken great care to save my vision for years.
Knowledgeable. Also explained about a clinical trial.
I respect his knowledge & experience. I know hes quite busy attending to other patients, but I feel as if Im not getting enough time with him.
Very professional and yet extremely kind and friendly.
Very professional inspiring confidence in his care.
He is great!
Very professional and knowledgeable about my condition and how to treat.
He uses words that are used in the medical industry and you have to ask him what it means. He also will say you need to see another Dr (ie Petty) but he doesn't tell you why you need to see the other Dr. It was a rushed appointment because he was running behind. He did thank me for being patient, which is a plus
I've found Dr.Bernstein to be consistently professional, very knowledgeable about retinal care, and easy to schedule with.
Hes one smart cookie
Excellent in all regards.
An Excellent physician.
Great person
Overall, it was a positive and productive experience.
Dr. Bernstein squeezed me in, without an appointment for my initial visit, because another doctor told him my case was urgent! Absolutely unheard of in today's world! I'm so GRATEFUL!!!
He sure knows how to stick a needle in an eye. Second treatment the tech used more pain killer and the stick was barely painful.
I appreciate the care Dr. Bernstein gives me and the trust I have in his knowledge.
Very knowledgeable with strong research background and latest therapies
It was very good quality care.
Dr Bernstein took the time to listen to the challenges I was experiencing with my eyesight and explained the issues he noted. He was very thorough in his explanation of different approaches to reduce the symptom. He explained the pros and cons well and the presented his opinion of the least invasive method we could try. I really appreciate the care he gives.
Dr Bernstein is excellent in giving the injection. Dr. Mai was just as caring when he gave me the injection.
Bernstein is the very best. Knowledgeable, easy to talk to, respectful. The best!
Awesome doctor! Communicates well.
Very accomplished
He is really an expert in his field of specialty. He explains his diagnoses in a very clear manner and understandable way.
Good
One awesome doctor
Impressed with his interacton with me.
professional and compitent!
Asked about the clinical trial to have an acid injected into my eye so I wouldn't have to get a shot every so many weeks. He explained what the percentages are for success as well as the other 3rd percent.
Excellent doctor
Have been a patient of his for several years and hes always outstanding in the care and punctuality and stuff very good
He is easy to talk to and is thorough with my care. I trust him completely.
Exudes kindness, excellence and professionalism.
My experience with Dr Bernstein and his entire staff was excellent!!
DOCTOR PAUL S. BERNSTEIN IS A TERRIFIC PHYSICIAN AND HE IS VERY HELPFUL IN ALL MEDICAL SITUATIONS! I LOVE MY VISITS WITH HIM! HE IS GRATEFULLY APPRECIATED!
Professional in every way. My favorite doctor.
El es muy profesional , es muy estudiado se ve que le gusta la medicina es un sper excelente Doctor yo confio mucho en El.
very helpful and staff
His mannerism and service and caring and professionalism was absolutely first class. I would recommend him to anyone.
He is great!
Always positive
The above 4 questions submit up!
As I said previously, Dr Bernstein spent time with me, explaining my current diagnosis issues answered my questions, I felt comfortable talking to him.
Very trusting and informative
He is absolutely the best.
I received the absolute best care. He gives painless shots. He is concerned for my sight.
I am starting my 8th year with Dr. Bernstein. That should say several things about the care I have received from he and his staff.
He is very knowledgeable and efficient.
I feel like I received excellent care from Dr. Bernstein. He is a doctor I trust. He listened to what I had to say and gave me options. He clearly outlined the pros and cons to those options. I would recommend him highly.
he is not an engaging person, as I like. He is professional and caring for me and world renown in his profession. I am concerned in the cost the treatment and the facility charge I have to pay at each visit is a large amount.
He was very nice to me and answered my questions
Dr. Bernstein is very thoughtful and will take the extra time I needed to understand and explain the answers to my questions in terms that I could understand.
Dr. Bernstein was laid back and competent.
Great l always request him for everything l Love him for being who he is and for the Special Care he Always Gives to his Patients!
Best Dr ever. No frill, all pro and exacting with his care.
Awesome
Very good
Dr. Bernstein is always cordial, thorough and professional, and addresses any questions I have.
Its hard to find words that express my respect and gratitude for Dr. Bernstein. My surgery restored not only my vision, and thats beyond amazing, but he healed my broken hope. Im someone who has had too many surgical complications (none of them pertaining to my eye) and while I have recovered physically as best that I can, my personal history with resulting PTSD and depression had kept me from moving forward as soon as I should with my eye surgery. Dr. Bernstein, bless him, changed all that past worry for me by his excellent skill and his confidence in my chances for the successful outcome that he and his team made possible. Wow! Im thrilled and tremendously grateful!
Knowledgeable and kind
Could not ask for better
Dr. Bernstein has a nice staff that is caring and thorough. He answers my questions and keeps me informed about other treatments for my MD.
Es muy muy buen doctor es muy estudiado y se prepara mucho para cada paciente yo le pido a Dios que lo ilumine bastante para que su profesion como medico nos ayude a quienes tenemos problemas de vision tanto nios como adultos le doy numeros infinitos de puntaje . mi nombre es Carmen Campo. Lo admiro mucho
High regard for Dr Bernstein and associates
I send my family members to Dr Bernstein. I trust him completely.
Dr Penrod is great. He listens and works with me for good outcomes
I ALWAYS A FOLDER MADE UP TO GIVE TO FRIENDS WHEN THEY REQUEST SPECISL MEDICAL SERVICES!
Dr. B is a man of few words.
Great visit with excellent attention to all my concerns and joys. Received excellent post op news about my healing!
He took the time to explain the option for a medical procedure and was ver patient in answering my list of questions.
I'm very grateful for Dr. Bernstein! His skill is masterful and caring and provides me with trust and hope!
Always the best care
Dr bernstien is very very good
I like that I was able to see the images of my exams.
Dr Bernstein and other physician explain everything before any need for questions. Excellent understanding of my other neurological issues and concerns that might impact my surgery.
They are always excellent in every way possible. I was quite late this time and they all stayed to take care of my treatment. They went above and beyond for me. They were all extremely gracious and caring
I always have High Praise for my Doctors and Staff
Very food. That is why I have been going to the Moran for many years.
The best!
Excellent
As a medical professional, I can tell that Dr. Bernstein is obviously very knowledgeable and I trust him, but it seemed like all he wanted to do was get out of the room. I had many questions and concerns, considering I'm thirty and possibly going blind, and it felt like I was a burden on him. I understand he's busy, and if he can treat/cure me, then great. But I would also appreciate a provider that would answer my questions, calm my anxiety, and take the time to ensure I was comfortable with the treatment plan.
I always tell people how awesome the Moran is!!
I honestly do not know ! Think that provider might develop more skill in listening to patient's questions about testing.
Excellent care always
Dr. Bernstein seemed a little rushed on this day like he was overbooked or had too much going on. My questions got answered, but very quickly like he needed to get to the next patient.
Dr Bernstein and those assisting him were professional and focused on my recovery progress from surgery.
I would recommend Dr. Bernstein but not the gentleman that gave me the first shot.
At all visits and during all appointments we were treated very respectively
This was a shorter follow up visit, but Dr. Bernstein was still very thorough.
Dr. Bernstein is always wonderful. I saw a medical student as well and he was very good and professional.
I was taking very well of and they were very caring that they showed kindness and empathy was over and beyond what they needed to do
This was one of my follow-up visits, a quick check and I was on my way home.
My scores above are referring to a Dr. Bernstein, he had terrible bedside manner. He said very little to me, I was nervous about my appt and his first comment to me was rude. Later on I got to see a Dr. Patel who was amazing and kind and compassionate.I can't say enough good about her.
I have visited the clinic twice as a patient, largely because of the recommendations of referring physicians and Dr. Bernstein's reputation for clinical excellence in AMD. I recognize the research and training-related aspects of his practice. However, upon each visit I have found the time spent with physician "fellows" to be entirely redundant and non-productive. During my most recent visit, the physician fellow examined images and my eyes, then spent the rest of her time with me typing in the EMR. Also, someone interrupted her and she left the examination room for several minutes while returning without apology. She resumed her typing. When she finished using the computer and finally made eye contact with me, I told the physician fellow of my hearing loss impairment and requested that she speak loudly and clearly to me. She did so momentarily, then resumed looking at the computer and pointing out certain clinical results in a soft voice, which, when spoken through a mask, were unintelligible to me. I repeated my request and clearly stated my desired results for this visit. From my perspective, the fellow brushed them aside and drove hurriedly toward her own objectives. Impersonal. Hurried. Non-compassionate. Unhelpful to me as a patient in terms of a treatment plan for a disease with no cure. As a longtime hospital CEO, I have hired and evaluated many physicians. In my view, this fellow as well as the one involved in my first visit will not be successful in private practice if they treat patients as I was treated. If the training regimen for such physician fellows orients them solely toward science, checklists, and labor productivity with little or no regard to patient satisfaction, compassion, and sincere caring, then the related future of medicine is darkened. When Dr. Bernstein finally came to the examination room, though seemingly a bit bored with yet another patient, he provided better information and paid more attention to me, but offered very little in terms of how continuing to use his clinic would benefit me. He spent no time to become acquainted with me, my lifestyle, or future plans. Near the end of our encounter, I said, in large part due to the above-described frustrations, to Dr. Bernstein that, "I didn't want to go blind." He responded with the perhaps the most valuable takeaway for me from the entire 3+ hour experience by saying something like, "We are here to help you avoid that."
This was a preliminary check-in for complications as part of a larger illness. As such, discussions of treatment were minimal, as the larger disease's treatment is ongoing. What discussion was had was more than adequate for this visit.
I think I have expressed I am unhappy with my experience
Very positive!
Couldn't get any better!
Have already done that.
I have been under the care of Dr Bernstein for over 11 years. He is the very best and I trust him completely.
Dr. Bernstein is brilliant and assuredly the best in his specialty. He described all options and procedures most clearly.
Dr. Bernstein is extremely knowledgeable, just the kind of doctor you want working on your eyes!
I have referred several of my Friends to the Clinic over the years!
They were all very kind
Dr Bernstein was very informative. He is the best!
No as good as previous visits. Doctor Bernstein prescribed in office cryo-procedure and delegated it to resident. Resident's name not listed in Mychart after visit notes. Doctor didn't follow up - I was hoping to ask questions. After procedure, resident immediately went to find doctor to have him check work. She never came back so I could ask her questions either.
Terrible experience.
The medical staff was extremely concerned with my understanding of the purpose and scope of my treatment. Superior professional team!
Dr Bernstein if very knowledgeable but seemed to be in more of a hurry. There was more pain with the injection this time as if they didn't give enough topical anesthetic and/or they were in a hurry.
The professionalism is superb!
Dr. Bernstein has always been excellent. My rating being very good is not given lightly. It is truly the way it has been.
Dr Bernstein is awesome. The best there is.
I have booklets made up and when someone needs help with there eye situations l give them that and then they know what to do and follow throug!
Always good
This is my second visit with Dr. Bernstein. He seems very short with me and makes me feel like a burden. He's not patient during exam.
Very knowledgeable and caring. Great personality. Impressive.
Tech was great. Dr Bernstein is always good.
Dr Bernstein is very good and knowledgeable. However, we had to ask him to discuss the results of the retinal ultrasound photos that were taken just prior to being seen. We got the impression he was about to leave without discussing these.
Very satisfied
Grateful to have Dr. Bernstein as a doctor
Best location for eye care.
Dr. Bernstein is doing everything he can to restore my vision. I am very pleased with his professionalism.
I am always impressed with the care and concern at the center. Excellent people and care.
I was being seen for macular degeneration but my cataract got most of the attention
It seemed at the end of all the testing, not much feedback what the testing showed or compare to last year. I was Asked if I thought my eyesight was a little worse. I said yes---reading. Not much was suggested or discussed why. Referred me to a low vision clinic. Concerned about dry eye symptoms; referred me to a different eye specialist that is more Knowledgeable in dry eye syndrome. In fairness I have not read in My Chart yet the follow up report.
World class, professional, kind
I always keep on hand packets to hand out to anyone needing Quality Eye Care
Excellent care! I completely trust Dr Bernstein
Dr. Bernstein is one of the best eye surgeons in the West. You are lucky to have him on staff.
The doctor was professional and kind.
Very helpful
This was a regular checkup, not a new problem
This was a check up from a previous year. I don't believe we have enough information yet to make any decisions. We scheduled an appt to get more information
Dr Bernstein is the best in his field! He cared for my husband for several years before he died. I feell blessed and confident in his thorough examination of my eyes.
Dr Bernstein is the best!
I always feel like I'm the only patient in the clinic. I never feel rushed, or that the question I asked was as vapid as it probably was.
Professional and EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE!!! Could not have been more lucky to be seen by this physician
I am so impressed with The Moran Eye Center, first class eye care.
Dr. Bernstein is an excellent retinal specialist and Doctor. I am lucky to be one of his patients.
I was somewhat nervous about having an injection into my eye. Dr. Bernstein and his staff reassured me that this procedure was routine and my level of discomfort would be minimal, and it was.
There Iis Iinformation that I don't ask at the moment and I wasn't told that should have been address like I was doing well but they didn't informed me of how to handle my activities in order to protect my vision. I work in packing items up to 49 lbs and I call to be informed about the weight I could carry and I was told not more than 20. Wow... Aam glad I call before started to work.
I am impressed with the changes made at this particular clinic. I used to be a UofU patient for everything but I had to change my family doctor because of the lack of interest in me as a patient. But kudos for you guys with this improvement as a facility and as faculty at this Moran Eye Center.
Dr Bernstein is the absolute best!
They are All Great!!!
Dr. Bernstein was a pleasure. He and his team kept me informed, and treated me with kindness. Even though I was squeezed into their schedule I never felt rushed, or short-changed. My entire experience over several days was professional, focused, thorough and, dare I say, enjoyable.....odd since I ended up having surgery. Great people!
Dr. Berstein always seems to be in a hurry some days. Slow down for a minute:-) and let me ask my questions. I try to be prepared for him when I come in.
GOOD
I really like Dr. Bernstein and appreciate his care and expertise
good
There wasn't much discussion. Fo I need two eye doctors, one for the retina and one for vision and other stuff
I already know my options because they were explained during prior visits.
When they were in the exam room together, the fellow and the doctor talked to one another about me, not to me.
I think I was served by the best in the state or states!
awesome
Very professional caring staff!
the entire experience at the clinic was comfortable and reassuring...very caring people
Just Keep Up the Fabulous Blessed Special Work they do to make others lives Better!!!
Dr Bernstein is simply superb
Dr Bernstein is the absolute best! I am always confident in his care.
Dr. Bernstein is one of the best and you are lucky to have him on your staff. Kind, caring and always calm.
Br Bernstein seemed totally overloaded and did not have time to examine me in detail or discuss issues with me. Prior to the procedure ,the wait was extensive to the point that they had to renumb my eye which was becoming increasingly uncomfortable. AT one point they did not have the correct forceps and the doctor disappeared for a prolonged period while the correct ones were found. The delays were most unsettling.
There were numerous delays during the appt and Dr. Bernstein was in a hurry to get to other appts at the VA so I didn't get the personal attention to my problem that I was expecting.
Dr. Bernstein is very efficient yet direct, honest and kind. Most importantly, I trust him and know he would not recommend any experimental treatments or studies based on my specific eye condition.
Dr. Bernstein is the best! You are lucky to have him on your staff.
good
Dr. Bernstein is the BEST!
The results of my tests did not encourage a good outcome to improve my vision. The team of Drs made the tests available to pinpoint what is causing my loss of clarity of vision. Not liking the results of the reality of what is happening is not anything that the Eye Center couldn't or didn't do. I appreciate the effort to diagnose the problem.
Bernstein very to the point but empathetic He could sense my stress over the longterm issues for my daughter
Very good
Good
suggesting more resources
Excellent
very good
The actual visit with the provider was extremely short (5min at most). The provider appeared to be in a hurry and we did not feel as though we could ask the questions that we came in with, so as not to detain him from whatever was pressing him. The provider spoke more to his medical assistant/scribe than he did to us about our son's condition. We understood what was discussed between the doctor and MA, as we are both RNs. Had we not had a medical background, we would have been lost in their conversation. He did not show/explain to us any of the images pulled up on the computer following the extensive battery of tests that our son had gone through all morning. We were very disappointed overall.
Dr. Bernstein is excellent and I completely trust him with my eyesight.
Dr Bernstein is the best! I have confidence in him.
excellent
Dr. Bernstein is excellent!
They explained everything about taking care of my eyes and explained everything very well
Thank You
outstanding in every way
Absolutely no complaints and thanks to Dr. Bernstein for restoring my vision.
I feel the care providers were very good at listening and helping me understand everything. Dr. Bernstein is the very best, of course I would recommend him. The Fellow was also very good. I was very comfortable with him.
Always answers my questions regardless of whether I want the answer or not
I had everything I needed to take care of my irritated eye by the end of the visit. Tge eye drops helped immensely
I wanted to see the eye scan and go through the details of it.
Dr Bernstein did not come in only resident to give shot
Dr. Bernstein and Staff have always been very courteous and helpful
Staff is exceptionally professional.
Dr Bernstein, Dr Le and everyone else was very good at explaining how my eye was responding to the treatment and what outcome they were expecting. Also, very good were the instructions on what and how we should proceed with my medications.
Excellent
good experience
Dr Bernstein's team is the paragon of professionalism, none finer could be found! I trust my eyesight to them without reservation.
they are very informative
very good experience
Always excellent and thorough with treatment.
This was the most unpersonable visit I've ever had with a healthcare provider. He almost seemed angry with me I showed up for a follow-up he wanted. He didn't answer my only question. All I got was "it's stable see you in a year."
Glacoma surgery went very bad
I had to ask questions. He didn't elaborate. He's a great retinal specialist. But very gruff. I'm thinking of going back to my previous doctor who was more pleasant to be seen by.
We never did see Dr. Bernstein but a resident doctor. Again, clinic was very busy.
good
Very good.
I trust Dr. Bernstein to help keep my eyes as healthy as can be. I have the vision I do have because of his knowledge of the retina and the Moran Eye Center to provide the latest technology for it's patients.
The doctor initially didn't want to stay and answer our questions but when we asked, he did and did so graciously and fully. I think doctors forget that people have questions and need to take a couple of minutes before the visit is concluded. I do advise that the front office staff do not write out letters that patients need for work. I'd much rather that the doctor or the doctor's PA or MA help with this as the letter that the front office staff wrote was not beneficial for HR at my work and I ended up coming back with a form the following week to get filled out.
The care provider was complement
Bernstein is top notch
I'm very grateful, thank you
we decided to go for surgery
Dr Bernstein is always courteous and attentive.
Doctor was thorough in explaining procedure.
Doctor was behind schedule, so it seems he did not take as much time with me; however, it's possible I just didn't have any problems this time.
Moran is the best!
it's a phase 1 treatment for my condition, but I didn't feel like he was particularly encouraging me towards it.
Excellent
minimal discussion
Excellent
I thought all persons who worked on my eyes did great
Dr B was willing to listen and I appreciate it
just told I had a tear in retina and this is the treatment. no discussion of risks
arguing about my treatment
excellent
excellent
Care rendered by Dr. Bernstein related to my basic visit was usual and customary, in fact, rather uneventful. I did, however, learn two additional, somewhat valuable, pieces of information regarding my diagnosis, i.e., macular degeneration. However, Dr. Bernstein's interest in me and my clinical future seemed tepid and improved only somewhat when I agreed to and participated in the subsequent research-related examinations, photography, etc. To my recollection, no information was given to me regarding what personal benefit might accrue to me as a patient with a degenerative disease for such participation by Dr. Bernstein. My agreement to participate was primarily based on the notion of helping to contribute to science with a secondary motivation that doing so might help me as a patient.
He seemed distracted - I would say "cold" but maybe that"s his style. He never smiled nor made eye contact, something I'm very accustomed to seeing with other providers.
would like the doc to check up week after surgery to see if everything's going good at home
all excellent
Dr Bernstein has always taken good care of my eyes!
I would recommend Muran to everyone. It is a far drive for me (~5 hrs) but worth it to receive that quality of care
I have always had complete confidence in Dr. Bernstein. The other doctor who saw me (Chris?) was also very helpful and competent. Overall good experience.
Dr. Bernstein answers all the questions I ask but does not necessarily offer additional information. That is fine. As I may have mentioned before, I didn't choose him because he is chatty. I chose him because he is an excellent physician and surgeon. I couldn't be more pleased with the results of the procedure.
Dr. Bernstein is the best!
Good Experience. No Problem
Talked to me a lot about how relevant my new depression and anxiety are to my problems with my eye and helped very well with that.
Good experience.

I first thought I was coming in for Lazer treatment and it escalated to surgery on the findings of other problems that needed correction. I'm so happy that these things were explained and addressed at the time.
Dr. Bernstein has been great. I'm grateful he is here.
not the best bed-side manner.
Dr. Bernstein is a true professional. I was very impressed with his knowledge and was truly concerned about my eye problem.
Wasn't in the room for 2 minutes. I hear he's very good at treating retina problems, mine is minor and he seemed disinterested.
Dr Bernstein is always friendly and concerned for my comfort. I feel I receive the best care possible.
I have shots every 6 weeks so I don't always see my Dr and usually don't have questions
Dr Bernstein is the BEST! I appreciate that he cared for my needs amid the Corona Virus. He is always friendly and professional.
