"Dr. Berkelhammer performed a colonoscopy on me in April 2021. Before the colonoscopy, I told Dr. Berkelhammer I thought I had colon cancer because of my unexplained weight loss, abdominal distension and pain, anemia, change in bowel habits, diarrhea, and black stools. After the colonoscopy, Dr. Berkelhammer said definitively that there was no cancer. He did not explain why I was experiencing symptoms of colon cancer, and he did not address the symptoms. In October 2021, I had emergency surgery for cecal volvulus. When the surgeon removed the twisted part of the colon, he found a malignant tumor, which caused the cecal volvulus, inside the twisted part. I have stage 4 cancer. After surgery I got sepsis and almost died. I suffered severe physical, mental, and emotional pain while hospitalized. If Dr. Berkelhammer had found the tumor, I could have avoided the cecal volvulus surgery, the subsequent complications, and much pain and suffering."

"I have been seeing Dr Berkelhammer for almost 30 years. He is thorough and persistent. You will have to wait but that is due to his thoroughness. I highly recommend Dr Berkelhammer."

We know that finding the right doctor or provider is important to your health. That’s why we want to ensure you have confidence in the provider profiles and listings you see on WebMD Care. Our provider data is sourced from the physicians themselves as well as publicly available databases. Any doctor or provider who claims their profile by verifying themselves can update their information and provide additional data on their specialties, education, accepted insurances, conditions they treat, and procedures they perform.

All the physician and provider reviews on WebMD Care are provided by users just like you. Knowing these reviews provide insight into how other patients feel about a doctor, we maintain internal policies and protocols to ensure the quality and accuracy of all reviews. Providers are not able to remove or modify reviews on their own. Reviews can only be removed after an internal review by our customer service team.

We value your input and encourage you to reach out to our support team if you encounter any issues.
