4.7Time with Patient
The Patient Rating score is an average of all responses to physician related questions on our nationally-recognized Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey. Responses are measured on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best score. Comments also are gathered from this Patient Satisfaction Survey. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy. The comments are submitted by patients and reflect their views and opinions. The comments are not endorsed by and don’t necessarily reflect the views of Kaiser Permanente.
Originally from California, I attended Optometry school in Forest Grove, Oregon, and have lived in Longview, Washington since 1986. My wife and I were classmates, and she also is a Kaiser Permanente Optometrist. We have two wonderful adult children. I chose Optometry because I have had a lifetime interest in optics like photography and astronomy, and I have also had a lifetime of horrible vision myself and frequent trips to the family eye doctor!
About my practice
I spend half my time doing routine general optometry exams, and the other half seeing contact lens patients. I have worn contact lenses myself since early teen years, so I have a pretty good perspective on what that field is all about, and I enjoy working with contact lenses quite a lot.
How I thrive
Being in a health care field certainly drives home the point about reasonable diet and exercise! My wife and I both enjoy playing tennis, hiking, and snow skiing.
this was the first time meeting Dr. Berger. I felt at ease & safe with him. He was familiar with my eye history & told me what was going on in my eyes. Thank you for having him on your staff.

Dr. only although professional & competent, there was not much in the way of personality - bland face & voice. Usually health care professionals will offer a smile at least. This does not affect his ability to do his job, just made me feel cold.

dr Berger did not seem to listen to my issue and past it over like it wasn't important. I still can not see to read up close and am very disappointed that I spent the money on an appointment that solves nothing.
