Berston Emanuel MD

Huge fan of Dr. Berston. Rock Star. Professional. Cares. Has three kids of his own. He gets it. Nice guys matter. He’s that guy.

My son has been going to Dr. Berston since birth — he has been wonderful. My son has been comfortable with him since birth and he eases my anxiety when my son is sick. He is knowledgeable, attentive, super sweet, and he is the fastest needle in the West! My son doesn’t even realize he got poked! He really cares about kids which is important to me. It really says something if a child requests to go see his doctor. Dr. Berston is a total Pro!

It can be difficult for almost anyone to find a pediatrician that they feel comfortable with, especially someone that you know will treat your child with the upmost care. Dr. Berston has exceeded those expectations by 100%, and my husband and I couldn’t be happier to have our baby girl in his care. He is incredibly professional, has fantastic bedside manner, and is very thorough in his examinations at checkups. What I also appreciate about Dr. Berston, is the way he takes the time to answer any questions you may have, his willingness to explain certain treatments, and his ability to let you take time to decide what you feel is best for your child, rather than pushing his medical opinion on you.
I highly recommend Dr. Berston to any parents looking for a loyal, thorough, and professional pediatrician. Your child will be in safe hands with him.

I can’t find the words to express how great Dr. Berston is. I’ll do my best. He is the most amazing physician EVER! Extremely knowledgeable, attentive, professional, great bedside manner, understanding, return calls, hard worker, great at follow ups. I can go on forever. If he’s not your child’s physician, I’m sorry to say but you’re missing out on a bunch of greatness! Thank you Dr. Berston for taking such good care of my baby Dorian.

We are huge fans of Dr. Berston. He is thorough and knowledgable, with a kind-​hearted, personable bedside matter. He listens to the parent, because as a parent himself, he realizes that the parent knows their child better than anyone else. After an incident at the ER, he took a keen interest in figuring out what was wrong with our son — and wouldn’t stop until we knew. We are grateful of this man we also now call friend.

Where do I begin… My son has been seeing Dr. Berston since he was 3 months old. He just turned 13. Dr. Berston is a wonderful physician and has his patients best interest at heart. He always listens and is extremely patient. He follows up when he says he is going to and in my opinion one of the best in his field. I couldn’t imagine my son seeing any one else. Dr. B always returns phone calls and goes above and beyond. I highly recommend Dr. B!!!

My now 25-​months old daughter has been a patient since she was 3 days old. From her very first visit to her recent 2-​year appointment, she has been a fan of Dr. Berston. Dr. Berston is compassionate, gentle, sincere, understanding, helpful and (insert many more positive adjectives). Especially as a then new, unexperienced, nervous mother, I appreciated his concern and interest in my own well-​being. He listened to my worries and I never felt judged — no matter how ‘silly’ my question may have been. To this day, he keeps encouraging and affirming me as a mother. He never rushes through an appointment. I once had some issues with our insurance and Dr. Berston took the time to deal with it and solved my problem on my behalf.
The staff (nurses and front desk) is efficient and friendly. The office is well-​managed and when you call for advice, a nurse calls you back within a short time to evaluate if you should come in for a doctor’s exam. The waiting room is very clean but could use a few more toys or children’s books.
Dr. Berston is located near the Serramonte Target and there is plenty of parking in front of the building.
